The trip started off great -we were so chuffed to get three routes in on the first day down at Kastelli. After that it did seem to take a few days to settle in- perhaps needing a chance to wind down from work and the journey over! What really took its toll this year was the heat and the approaches- perhaps it was hotter this year than normal in June but we have become very lazy on the approaches favouring the much shorter walk ins. We did go to a couple of new crags this year-Arginonta skyline and Palionisos Bay. This trip I focussed on trying to tick off some of the classic 7as. One of the best days was actually up Kastri where I onsited Gotti 7a, Principessa Giulia 6c+ and Dragons Lair 6c. Another great day was up Ghosts Kitchen, blocked popular routes forced me up some intimating steep stuff on the main wall! Palionisos Bay was a great new crag although not really much left to go back for- very pleased with the onsite of Baden mit end ohie (7a). The climb of the trip probably had to be the onsite of Prophet Andreas (7a) at Prophitis Andreas.
