November Grit

Mild, foggy and still; this November's had its damp days but the eastern rim of the Peak District emerged from the cloud on Sunday around lunchtime while I was out with Tim on Baslow Edge. Sarah and Catia had headed off for a walk in the fog an hour previously and we'd found the silver Baslow Grit to have good friction underfoot.
Neither of us had done much climbing at Baslow. It's a low edge with short routes so we carried bouldering mats, intending to climb without the restriction of rope and harness. Once the sun burned through the mist we climbed on in the bright autumn warmth for a couple of hours until the arrival of the women and, just as importantly, the picnic.
