Abseiling weekend
The weather has been kind to us this weekend in the Wye Valley; with heavy rain overnight but dry and sunny during the days - so despite slippery underfoot conditions we were able to do some abseil practice - with some novice abseilers finding that its not so bad afterall !

Snoozin Suzie & The Russian
Another stunningly beautiful day at Symonds Yat with crystal clear skies and dazzling winter sun .
'Snoozin Suzie' and 'The Russian' had our attention today - the rock was cold on the fingers but dry with good friction - the climbing was well worth the effort with excellent views down the Wye and time enough at the end of the day for hot chocolate at the cafe.
