Dinbren

Dinbren has been a crag on my list for a few years now and I'd been warned it was hard. There's only a couple of routes below 6c, and even warming up on those felt stiff. It felt quite similar to the style of the embankment at chee dale -hidden side pulls, undercuts and technical footwork. Every route felt a challenge and an achievement to reach the top, and it's clear why redpointing is the way to go here. This is difficult for me to get my head round as a climber that really enjoys on sighting. Dyperspace (7c) was one of the harder routes I wanted to try and this was definitey the highlight of the day.  I feel that the redpoint of this route is definitely within reach for next time.
