Tim Emmett Article in Climber

This month's Climber (November) has a great article written by Tim Emmett about his attempt to climb a new five-pitch route up the over-hanging cliff of Sron Uladail with Dave MacLeod. It's a fantastic read - heart in mouth stuff. Great taste of what's to come in his talk in November.
