Might stick these links in the Wiki at some point if I'm bored.

Done, see the here.

Be useful to promoting UKB as a resource to have this sort of information organised into the Wiki which is far easier to navigate for such information than the forums, so if you've a camera to add please consider adding it to this Wiki page too.

Now, to mirror the plethora of topos on the Wiki from the Vimeo group!

If you are doing, be aware that I haven't swapped the Stoney/ Minus Ten guide for the updated version as yet.

Is there an option to store topos etc on UKB/the Wiki?  I ask because Vimeo storage sizes are becoming more limited nowadays and things like the Brownstones guide are quite big

Yeah, clocked that.

I guess there is as its a MediaWiki installation (that used by Wikipedia) and you can upload images at least to that, although the button selection for editing is rather more limited than Wikipedia's implementation, need to go and read the MediaWiki docs (local help files don't appear to be installed).

Very true, and in many ways conditions were better than if it had been sunny, except for being fucking freezing.

Monsal dale too:

Fucking genius. If you want to use this one, change 'cragx' to 'cress brook' (and delete the space) in the URL.  :lol:

This one's moved, I've added it to the wiki.

I just spent five minutes searching the wiki and concluded you'd never got round to listing webcams. Am I retarded?

Nope, when Bubba started the wiki there were two sections, Bouldering FAQ and UKBouldering FAQ.  I opted to list the webcam page under the former the reasoning being people would be looking at it if they were asking the question "Whats the weather like for bouldering in area XXX".

Various pages have been added since then.  Perhaps they could be more prominent, but at present pages aren't being organised in any structured way in part because a) no one person has taken responsibility with a clear overview of how it should be organised; b) different people writing the pages have different ideas of where things should go.

I think some idea of what the Insect Overlords wish the wiki to become is needed.  I started writing the Venues section and created templates for various countries/areas but they're waiting to be filled in.

Of course you could have used the little box in the top right that has a button next to it labelled Search and you'd have found it.

Recently found this one useful for the Brimham/Almscliff end of Yorkshire:

The 'weather' link also has a good breakdown of current conditions:
