Glendasan

Went out with Tim to Glendasan somehow he had never been there before. Warmed up at the Starting Block. Headed up to The Tank and tried Faith in Lichen, the problem on the left, it's a powerful few moves to get stood up and a smeary highball finish. Tried the arete right of Darkness which is in the guide as a project, not sure if that is right. We bottled the last move, it's probably easy but it is high. Tim tried the Gaskins 7b on the right. Most of it is pretty easy all the 7b-ness is in the second move.

It was starting to rain at this point so we headed down to the IMC Hut and tried the brilliant arete on Zef's Boulder which is 50m down from the hut on the other side of the road. It gave us no need to trouble but is a brilliant problem. Friction all the way on very nice white granite.
