Climbing Under Caroline S4a : Caroline S4a Hedbury Sea Cliffs, Swanage

Описание: A sunny October afternoon on the Dorset coast, climbing Under Caroline into Caroline at Mike’s Corner, Hedbury. The route starts with a rising sea-level traverse to a narrow ledge and belay at half height, before continuing up Caroline to finish just below the large quarried cave.

Bob leads the first pitch, I follow through on the second. We walk in from Spy Way Barn, calling in at Dancing Ledge for a few easy warm-up climbs while waiting for the spring tide to drop. A fine day above the sea, quiet and clear.

Location: Hedbury, near Swanage, Dorset Coast
Routes: Under Caroline (traverse), Caroline (second pitch)
Climbing style: Sea cliff trad climbing, multi-pitch, limestone climbing
Conditions: calm seas, falling spring tide, sunny autumn afternoon
