Pete Whillance


Quick Info

From: United Kingdom 🇬🇧
Hardest Trad (Worked): E6

Johnny Dawes:

A Midsummer Night's Dream. Incantations. Edge of Extinction. These routes sent a shiver down my spine in the 80's.

Superb, bold, thin, majestic lines. Pegs tied off, little stoppers, huge runouts.

Pete absolutely epitomised British rock climbing. [1]
