f6A - A Boulder for a Rainy Day

Forest of Dean Bouldering Circuit f6

A Boulder for a Rainy Day is found at Huntsham on the Rainy Day Buttress (between The Devil may Care and Just Grab it!).

A surprisingly good set of moves on good solid holds, in amongst a Sea of very very soft sandstone. I swear there is actual sand, like the stuff you see on a beach here! 😂

Start on the low shelf (pictured) and traverse left slightly, then make your way up with techy climbing through to a finger pocket and up to a brief spell of pebble pulling. From here make your way to the obvious jug out right to finish. 

All in all, well worth a trip here if you simply have to climb and it is raining.
