Seemed like there was unfinished business from Tuesday's Moors Multi-Crag. Had to go back for more of the atmoshpheric climbing at;
Ravens Scar
Todays crag looms darkly above Great Broughton.
Got straight onto Airlift (S 4a)
Catching the morning sun so couldn't leave it alone.
AT gets off at the top floor
BP bridges up the bone dry Waterslide
Setting up an ab-station to do some route cleaning
Via Anna gets the brush off
Ready for later
Lazy Bones was filthy
So swapped across on to En Passant
AT wanders blithely up to the groove above a good ledge
About to get a bit of a shock!
The moves up from the next ledge are raight stiff

BP sets up for the thrilling moves up Forest Face
Great position
Via Anna VS 4b - and a bit more?
All buffed up for BP's lead
Gaps in the dots have to be filled in somehow
North Sea weather rolling in
BP deals with the first crux at mid height
The last moves prove problematic in the cold wind blowing mist straight from the North Sea
Business still to finish
Another view
That man Marr is at it again!

Some beta for next time
Ahab HS 4b
AT has tried and failed on this route numerous times
But not today
Moby Dick is alive and mutinous
* BP all but final 3m. AT 2nd
The crag wears its grades with considerable modesty
