La Creveta

The team head up a windy road, passing a LOT of people peddling up the the steep hill: from matching lycra clad gangs to single gear, around town creaky bikes. Stunning views back across the bay and over to Pollensa. We head for La Creveta, while Tim B. takes Douglas and Ally for some exposed climbs on a different crag.

Douglas and Ally get lowered in to their route. Climbing routes are usually accessed by walking to the base of the crag. Climbs on sea cliffs and gorges however, are often reached by abseiling in, which certainly adds a different level of commitment to the route; for example, you want to be sure that you have abseiled in to the right area and that you can climb out. Douglas and Ally were a little wide-eyed as Tim pulled the ropes. They had an amazing day and joined the others at La Creveta later. Nice helmet too Ally!










 The girls take the lead on some rather ground.
