Keith Ball sucking it up on the top of West Central Gully, Beinn Eighe, winter 2014.
British traditional rock climbing addiction is over. Hello to the mountains and all that comes with it – waiting-out conditions, weakness on rock, (although some would say I have never been strong) and a tad of suffering.
Sitting here in Chamonix with fellow co-conspirators/sufferers/obsessives, Tim Neill and Keith Ball plans are being hatched – will the weather give us a chance?
I climbed with Keith last winter in Scotland, hopefully we will get some better weather than experienced on that occasion.
Here is a link to a short film Keith made after the Scottish week we had together where we climbed Centurion and West Central Gully.
