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.... |
