Bouldering at Fidden beach - I've not been to portlethen though imagine it to be something like this...
Went with on a road trip/holiday with cath to Mull. It was a really relaxing time which was good after exams. Had a couple of days at fidden campsite and and 2 nights at loch buie. Did some really cool bouldering though midgeys ate me some of the time though not too bad. DWS at erraid was really cool. The wall doesn't look too intimidating from the beach but as soon as I went over to the top of the crag it seemed a lot bigger. so was pretty nervous about falling in, it's a long way to the beach... Went for Brine Shine which was amazing really but I made a desperate bit for safety at the top and wriggled into the horizontal crack you can see in the pic and unfortunatley got stuck. Some 10mins of squirming later and I was very glad to top out. However I was not glad to have scratches all over so did not want to rub salt in my wounds (cringe) and the next line!
So pretty good trip just looking forward to summer now. dunno exactly what im doing though hopefully involve DWS and mountain trad (roadtrip!!!!)
