Rain expected later but time to squeeze a local venue for a short day. Still more to do at;
Raven Scar
BP reported a Swainby downpour, walked in under threatening skies and took shelter from a brief shower under the overhang next to Ahab .

Then makes the crux moves up to a rest and more gear
Conditions on the dark side provide too oppressive. No wind. Very humid. Not pleasant.
Headed over to catch a welcome breeze and some open climbing at
The Wainstones
NYM Multi-Crag!
BP gets into a fine position on Ling Buttress
Local climber tackling the adjacent buttress
Little Bo Peep VS 4c
Feels bigger than it looks

One of these days........
2nd forced to adopt completely different approach.
Very tidy all the same.
AT sets up on Christopher
Crux proved a bit of a struggle
No change there then
Should have got that extra wire in
Local climber made it look easier
But that's because he CHEATED!
(traversed in so no problem latching the LH side pull)
HVS 5a?
Sounds fine by me!
The hike back to the cars was just fast enough
to push the sky away
