West Nab

Today I had a quick hit at West Nab for the first time.  This is another venue the Over the Moors guide has brought to my attention, as well as being a feature in the latest addition of Climb.  A huge cluster of boulders on the moor top, spread over a km makes for an interesting bouldering venue.  I only spent an hour today, but enjoyed the few problems I did.  The pick of the day was Hours of Practice font 7a, a tricky little slab.

Hitting the top on Hours of Practice
There had been a shower before we got there, so some things were a little damp.  Despite facing South, some faces are sheltered from the breeze, so did not dry as quickly as others.  Something to remember for the next visit.
