Muggy and midge-infested in summer and autumn, dank and festering through winter and spring, full of so-called classics that are either 8m high death-routes or slime-infested grovels you'll have to dig out of the vegetation, assuming you can find any vaguely climbable rock in the forest of bracken and then if you're not knackered from slogging all over the hillside trying to make sense of your chosen testpiece it will either be coated in luminous skank or wire-brushed to death....unless of course it was chipped to death years ago....still when all else fails you can kick back and enjoy the view - if you can see it through the pall of fumes from the nearby motorway... :

nearby motorway?

You are on drugs. There's not even a dual carriageway within ten miles.

Caley is amazing, how can you fault the likes of Syret's Saunter, Blockbuster, Ju Ju Club, Ripper Traverse, Angel wall, New Jeruselam etc :roll:

I've had one of my best UK bouldering days at Caley. Left work in Bradford and the weather was marginal, and headed optomistically through rain showers north. Got to airport and could see it was pissing down at the 'cliff, so stopped at Caley and headed for crag area. It was late summer so probs were at their cleanest. There were storms howling down the valley but caley was dry, freezing cold and blowing a hoolie. Ace friction, wild weather and some of the best bouldering in Yorkshire all to myself.

Caley is the fuckin bomb! It was mine and LJ's spiritual home for three years of uni n dint get bored of it once.  Full of ultra classic problems throughout the grade range.  Granted it does get green in winter but apart from that it's amazing.  A lot better than some of the shitty crags in yorkshire not mentioning any names: Ilkley, Hellifield (Crookstones or whatever its called :roll:

Caley's an amazing crag with tons of quality problems, but it faces the wrong way.
