With a better forecast in the west today John and I decided to head to Loudoun Hill with a Falkirk Community Trust climbing team of B, Gayle and Iona. This worked well and we had a pleasant dry day climbing with enough breeze to keep the midges away.

In various combinations and styles the team climbed Pulpit Arete, Conclusion Wall, Frustration Wall, Shattered Corner, Mantelshelf Wall, Pulpit Crack, Slings, Epitaph Variation, Strife, Cave Crack and the “wild, wild route” that is the knife edged pinnacle of The Edge.
