 destination: Peterborough Climbing Wall Bouldering Comp

when: March '09

 

 

While lot's of new faces were welcomed this year, many old ones also made the journey to attend the eagerly awaited 13th Annual Peterborough Climbing Wall Bouldering Competition '09.

 

And when it was seen what prizes there were on offer, we are sure that even more people decided to join in on the day.

 

Although starting at the later time of 6pm, this seemed to suit the majority of climbers. Perhaps because they could fit more mealtimes in beforehand or because the bar was open from the start...

 

Competitors had three hours to man-up and get on with the 33 routes on offer. Which many commented were a little bit tougher than last year. The easier routes got knocked off at the start, and then it was down to serious business. The usual hiding of the scorecards from fellow competitors was also going on.

 

Everything got rounded off in the bar at 9pm with many prizes being given out - Courtesy of Trail magazine and of course PITCH. Another great comp from the PCW, we will definitely be back for more next year.
