Nick Bullock has repeated Stevie Haston’s epic route, Melody HXS/E9 6b/c on the infamous Stigmata Buttress at Craig Dorys.
In 2004 Stevie first attempted the line ground up – this admirable but extremely dangerous approach (given the exceptionally loose rock on the lower section) was soon abandoned after some nasty falls and scary retreats. Stevie then [...]

Nick Bullock climbs a pile of tottering choss in North Wales and survives...
"Nick, known for falling off where he really shouldn't, did just that on this exact route in an attempt a year ago and plummeted 50ft down the crag after snapping a hold. Luckily some terrible gear saved his life..."

Nick Bullock has climbed a wild and radically steep line left of Godzilla in Fallen Block Zawn at Rhoscolyn.
The Frumious Bandersnatch E7 6c strikes an improbable line up through some eye-popping territory. The route took several visits, some alarming top-rope inspection, and at least one terrifying fall, before Nick topped it out on the sharp [...]

Nick Bullock and Andy Houseman will soon be returning to the UK having been unable to get on the South Pillar of Kyashar because of too much snow and it was the unconsolidated 'white stuff' that also thwarted their attempt on its West Ridge.
