When morning low tide and sun is shining climbing at LPT on the Orme feels like being aboard!
Fachwen Bouldering
In between Brynrefail and Deiniolen there is a very pretty area of rough ground with lots of trees, bracken, brambles criss-crossed by a few vague footpaths. In this area there are a few hidden boulders. Last night I headed up to try and seek them out.
I've added the boulders we visited to UKC:
Basking in glorious evening light at gone 7pm we repeated Willow 6B+ and Mat's Arete 6B on Mat's arête boulder.

I managed an on-sight (probably FA) of schoolboy traverse which we reckoned is about 7a+ with an awkward finish, and pretty good.
Witch’s Crag |
Luke on Crux of School Boy Traverse 7a+ |
Optional (an not recommended!) direct finish to School Boy Traverse |
