Year Climb Grade Style Ascent Date
2023 Gribin Wall Climb E9 Lead | worked May 2023
The Rising Son E8 Lead | worked May 2023

The best route in the [Llanberis] Pass, if not North Wales. It looks ugly, like Alex [Mason] (laughs) but it's so good, so good! [1]

Indian Face E9 Lead | worked 25th Jul 2023

To my horror, just as I stood up on the crux, I discovered the seepage had drained much lower than anticipated; and the last twenty feet of hard climbing was damp at best, and soaking in parts. At this point I was beyond committed, and falling off was undoubtedly off the table, so I rubbed my palms on the upcoming footholds to try to dry them out. With my heart pounding I began moving up precariously. A few moments later I latched onto the jug - exhilarated, but very much aware that I'd danced with death. [1]
