The Gravestones

We walked up to the Gravestones to avoid the sun and crowds in the pass. I made a quick headpoint solo of a slab route called King of Rumpy E6 6a. It was a bit dirty, so the chance to check it out on a rope first was a good idea. The climbing was pretty easy, but extremely serious with a drystone wall to land on. Jonny had a go, but was rescued for the top when he Poooed himself tried the last hard move.

Jonny then had a go on Ring My Bell. He was trying this ground up and did pretty well, getting to the last few hard moves before the ledge. We will be back up there again this week for some unfinished business.
