Rock n' roll summertime ...

Time sprung forward today to British summertime and with the promise of a good forecast Craig and I kept our 'alpine stars' heads on and headed to the Coe to lay hands on an old friend, Agag's Groove. Agag's never disappoints, especially as the first rock climb of the season. As planned at the top of the route we abseiled down the full length of January Jigsaw with the intention to climb this uber classic as well. Finding a rope of three readying at the bottom we coiled the ropes, had lunch in the sun and decided we had enough excitement (the abseil) for one day ...
