The silver lining to the rather wet winter we've had in the UK this year is that it really makes you appreciate some nice weather days when they come. Today was one of those days, today made me feel excited for the summer and super motivated to train, climb and get outside as much as possible.

Thanks to BOB hats for my awesome new bobble hat, if you would like a quality hat made by a couple of the nicest people I've ever met checkout
http://bobhats.com. Bob hats was setup after Will broke his heel after he broke a hold topping out on Jerrys roof, he's looking forward to it mending and heading off in his van around Europe for 12 months or so this summer. To help fund the trip and kill the time while his heel mends he's been making hats!

Mmm sun + cereal = winner |
After breakfast the day seemed so sunny I couldn't make myself head straight into work, instead I went for a little fell run up Elidir Fawr.
|
Running up Elidir Fawr via Marchlyn, water level looked surprisingly low given the amount of rain we've had! |

Little bit of fresh snow from last night on slopes of Elidir Fawr |

Little bit of hard snow remaining |

Here's a photosphere panorama I took on my phone, you should be able to scroll around it 360 degrees
I think spring is one of my favourite times of year, it;'s very exciting feeling warmth in the sun again and watching everything turn green and of course getting out on DRY WARM ROCK!
Roll on the spring and...bring on more days like this :-D
At the moment I've been trying to climb / train as much as possible ready for a trip to
Chuilla in Spain (via train) at the end of the month, I've been looking forward to this all winter! Chuilla sounds amazing, It's somewhere I've never been before.
I've also recently got some flights booked to Morocco at beginning of the summer, hoping to climb some big routes in Tagine in the Atlas Mountains, this should be an amazing experience both culturally and climbing wise.
