Dan Mills: June 2010

http://dan-mills.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html

Saturday, 26 June 2010. Excuses include; drinking last night, it being fucking hot in the wall, lack of rest (? No power on anything, i defiantly seem to lose that extra "edge" of power not training on plastic quite as much. Chin up you miserable twat! A big up to byron who did the left wall traverse (7b, Parisella's) with his spacky leg :). Also the news is bob is currently ticking his way through the welsh classics. king of drunks and the cromlech roof crack, beasted! Friday, 25 June 2010. With the sun...

Dan Mills: Back to the 'mwyn

http://dan-mills.blogspot.com/2010/11/back-to-mwyn.html

Wednesday, 3 November 2010. Back to the 'mwyn. Blasted back here on monday and ticked be ruthless. it went pretty easily on my second attempt. Feels nice to do something hard-ish after not climbing for so long. I then jumped straight on the sitter (7c ) and almost did it first go but failed getting my left heel high enough for the last hard move. I had a few more close attempts but soon got powered out. Shopping list for this week:. One big bouldering mat that will fit in the fiesta. Mondo?

http://dan-mills.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Thursday, 17 March 2011. Getting back to it. These past weeks have been goooood! Lots of training last week, to the point of KO'ing about half 9 each night, and a lot of rock this week. I'm feeling the fitness slowly but surely building back up. just in time really as me and byron are heading off in the next few weeks! Tom on the punk, 7c. Monday i met up with dom and eddy at the roaches, dom had already done piece of mind (e6 6b) at about half 8 that morning! Dom on the yogurt hypnotist, 7b. The cool li...

http://dan-mills.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

Sunday, 20 February 2011. It has been a while since my last post, mostly because since then i have done knaff all! Totally lost it for climbing for a few months, what a knobber. Font was a bit of a right of. we got one and half days of climbing in a week of torrential snow. Phil did 2 of the big 4 in day though, a sterling effort. I also have a 3 week holiday to canada with the fam and an additional two week stay over =SQUAMISH! A trip to the rocklands is also on the cards, octoberish time. Bob and byron...

Dan Mills: a day in the hills

http://dan-mills.blogspot.com/2010/11/day-in-hills.html

Sunday, 7 November 2010. A day in the hills. Myself and Gav headed to north wales yesterday (partly so i could get a pad. i got a mondo, it just fits in! For some action. I was pretty keen to go and try jerry's problem at the sheep pen but it was drenched. We stayed up at the sheep pen where i did the pinch (classic) and a few other things. Its an amazing spot and, save for one passing shower, we had mint conditions! Psyched to return and give jerry's a go. Was very nice to be in the mountains again!

Addicted to Injury: July 2012

http://thecrippledclimber.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html

It started out as some kind of rehab diary then ended up in a load of piffling nonsense. now it's back to it's ROOTS! With a bit of Trad thrown in for the hell of it). Monday, 9 July 2012. The holiday went ' so well'. I didn't have the inclination to write up its failings, a few months later here it is in note form:. June = Too early, huts closed, lifts closed, snow in descent gullies and only Eastern Bloc climbers (i.e. mentalists) climbing. Cinque Torri is crap. The Marmolada is friggin' huge ( 870m).
