Conditions would be great I'd have though. Sub zero tends to mean none of the usual greasiness. As to whether you'd want to go there on a winters day...

The article contains a map of all the main walls, with some text on the main/recommended problems, lots of photos. This map combined with a descripitive list of problems (e.g. from UKC log or similar) you should be able to work out what is what and at which section, and perhaps more importantly where each section is located in the woods (particularly hidden wall!).

The magazine article also highlights the sensitive access, which is important to read and adhere to.

Missed this... anyone got a lead on an unwanted guide (pm me if you do) or perhaps there's a chance of the pdf becoming available??? 

[Dicker]

thinking about going tomorrow - anyone been recently??

[mic_b]

  on Monday at the wave area most things were either wet or covered in ice. The only problems dry were I think beta blocker, black crow, and the probs around fire in the rain. I'd be interested in current conditions if anyone goes.

[moose]

Any recent conditions beta? I've never been to Anston and feel the need for novelty this Easter?

[Dicker]

Please...if anyone goes to Anston could you please let me know what it is like. Thank you.

[Seb]

Any one been recently?

On Friday dark art roof area was dry but everything else was wet due to melting snow. It was starting to dry a bit when we left so it's probably better now.

Any one been recently and know what the conditions are like?

The dark art area was dry today, a few wet bits on the bullet roof and the rh side of ebola buttress. The inset area was all dry except for the odd bit on Dukes wall, it's raining now so obviously it's not a great condition report but I'd have thought it would all be dry again by Monday.

[monkey boy]

Was bullet roof dry? More specifically revolver?
Cheers

[supertophe]

I can't remember exactly but I think it was ok, the route to the left was a bit damp in the pockets but dry-able with a towel and the tufa undercling was half wet. Sorry it's not a definite answer but hope it helps. Almost all of apprentice wall/whizz kid was dry yesterday, and the middle of Dukes wall was wet.

[Dicker]

any updates would be massively appreciated!

[monkey boy]

I went yesterday having said that I didn't go any further than bullet buttress, meant to but forgot. The whole place seems to be drying out. Spots of seepage and wetness still lurk but it's getting there.

[blacky]

Any update on conditions yo?

[peewee]

Any updates? thinking of heading there tomoz.

[supertophe]

Everything on dark art/ bullet roof was dry yesterday, Dukes wall was wet, apprentice/whizz kid were dry.

Yesterday evening was dryish, under bullet and dark art roof was a bit damp as was the Phoenix and Ebola etc.

[Gareth Parry]

Dukes was dry today...or so i heard from another group of climbers on the way out.

[groovedog]

Wave wall looked as though sewage was seeping out of it. After a few weeks of dry, I  was surprised to see it so ming.

Dark art roof seemed all ok. Fine Art too, and bullet roof.

Ebola wet patches, not ideal.

[abarro81]

Something must have changed with the drainage above the crag as that wall used to be perma dry

[dobbin]

Agree with all that groovedog said. I also checked the rocky valley roof thing - this is not a good craglet, but it is also dry.

Has something fallen off into the light? I couldn't see any holds to get from the back of the roof out to the lip???

Pictures in the guide are misleading (i.e. it looks good in the pics but actually involves crawling under a roof filled with litter to climb back up to less than head height).

Hidden wall has more potential, but was quite wet.

[chris05]

If anyone goes today, or has been in the last couple of days, any updates would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Dark Art was primo on Saturday. I am sure it will be still dry. Not much rain over this way and plenty of wind n sun.
