Blockhouse Buttress

After nay on two weeks of being confined to the climbing wall the weather finally turned, and so I met up with Dave and headed for Pembroke to get in some much needed rock. Our crag of choice was the Blockhouse Buttress, a 150ft headland located around halfway between Triple Overhang Buttress and The Castle, and somewhere I had not climbed before.

As it turned out the weather was perhaps too good, and the combination of heat and general lethargy meant that we only managed to get two routes done, Trucker's Delight (VS 4b) and Sheer Delight (HS 4b), the latter of which certainly lived up to its name. The rest of the day was spent watching some choughs fight a sea gull; I love the summer.
