Hey Tim was there tonight. Guess your asking about north buttress not sure on details but pretty decent but still with some seepy pockets. Wisywig and to the right pretty dry. Left side fine.

Any up dates from anyone?
Just returned to UK.
Can't believe everything is wet.
Might be forced to go tradding!

Depends what you want to get on. It is seepy but there are plenty of dry routes too. Not as bad as I thought it would be on Monday eve.

Everything bone dry and very good conditions yesterday, but cold, like really feckin' cold - lost one of our party to hypothermia, had to roll his body down the hill, fortunately in these temps it'll be months before he starts to smell.

Loosing one of your team to hypo is quite common when climbing with the older climber . The main problem is heat loss from a bald head , or on a hot day the sun reflects off the grey hair hope that helps

Been past a couple of times today.

On the whole looks very dry, however the usual suspects on North Buttress look like they have some damp holds on them, (no wet streaks though)!

Would be a nice day for it today!

Heard kilnsey was dry last weekend... Has it rained enough up there for it to be seeping now? Anyone been in the last couple of days?

The bouldering was dry last night ::)

Still a bit of seepage on north buttress, but not a great deal. It has however rained quite hard in Grassington this morning!!

What routes are you keen for, I am about to go up dale so could have a look for you!

Slightly off topic - Is there a topo for the bouldering? Had a quick search but couldn't see anything other than some old threads with photos which don't work any more..

I have a basic Kilnsey bouldering topo made by Andy B (itself culled from ukb threads) you could have.  If there is anything better out there, I would appreciate a copy of that too (having to drive to Anston to feed my limestone bouldering habit is getting a bit onerous).

Topo is on its way; don't get your hopes up though, it is pretty limited (let's just say I always end up driving nearly 60 miles to Anston or South Lakes instead for my lime fixes).
