Cummingston

All i can say about it was that it was freezing! It was soo cold!Admitedly it wasnt as cold as our last visit to cummingston but it was still quite seriously cold! We did our warm up route to begin with this didnt help much with the "warm" up part of it. So whilst waiting for the parents to set up a top rope for the prow we did some bouldering and once the tope rope was set up we all had a shot at the prow, Steven topped it and so did Ellen.
Then it was my turn and i managed to get to the point just before it starts to lean out and i started to panic because someone just before hand had said that noone should fall from there because if they did they would fall and hit the rocks underneath. So i decided to climb down because i didnt want to risk it and then. Nikki had a shot after me and she made it to that same point and fell but made it miles away from the rocks so i decided i should have a shot again and i did and i made it further but didnt top it unfortunately, i also made it further than the last time i did so i hope that one day i could come back when it is alot warmer!
