Road to Rejuvination

After such a scary and uninspiring evening earlier the week, Emma and I both need some chilled fun single pitch to get us fired up again.
Looking back towards Skye from the stunning Rubha Hunish peninsular.
We head to Rubha Hunish again, this time right to the Northern tip.  The crag ‘Non Stack’ offers pristine basult overlooking the vast Minch and Outer Hebrides on the horizon.
Seals play below us as we abseil down to a precarious ledge to climb the awesome crack of Jailbreak VS***.  It goes smoothly and as I belay surrounded by coastal flowers in the sun, I soon forget about the horrible climb days before.

Great vegetation on a sheepless spot of coastline
We pick out one more climb, Skraa VS**, which cuts across the stunning face above waves lapping over the rocks below.
Awesome rock in a stunning location
As we relax at the top of the climb, sun setting we remember why we love to climb and begin to plan the next adventure back to the formidable Rubha Hunish cliffs.
Skye sunsets....
