A Taste of the
Peak District
Peak District, Derbyshire climbing, bouldering venues, Mother's Pet Rock above Millstone …
Owler Tor, Millstone - Mother's Pet Rock.
Another piece of gritstone esoterica (although over the last few years it has become better known) this rounded lump of rock in the middle of the moors is worth a look. If you have the stomach for rounded and tenuous finishes, then this is the place for you, whilst underneath, there must be one of the most entertaining starts to a problem in the peak District - or at least for the audience, if not the climber. Enjoy the pics ...
Simon on the 'easy' bit, the left hand arete.
Next, Dave has a go. Below is the juggy and cramped start of the route up the right hand end of the boulder, Dave spotting attentively (you should see his belaying!)
