There is one in darkest Yorkshire, one that has not been climbed, one that is 30 ' long, one that from the back wall to the lip is a good 6'.

Will it yield any stunning problems?
Will the crack that splits it prove to be another Rays roof?
Or will it tun out to be choss?

We will see tomorow evening.

You Yorkshire bastards with yer new crags lying about everywhere - it's not fair!!!

I trust the piccies will be going onto yg.com, or is it a closely guarded secret?

Some local lad at The Slipstones (revenge for Peaks  :wink: ) was telling me about some more or less untouched stuff:
- Facing out from the crag, look directly out over moors - stuff is on the moor near a small quarried secion you can see, about 2 valleys over.

Any idea what all that is?

[Big Frank]

Could be Brown Beck crag. worth a visit.

If not there is some other stuff further up, looks smallish.

It's odd that no ones done it, as you can see it from the road and it has a public footpath running right under it.

Jason Myers probably did it years ago then  :wink:

Jon did actualy discover a mass of new boulders at the weekend he told me they were here

After that, you could head down to:

Or a really great crag:

The best is yet to come.....

Come on then!

I learnt everything i know here:

Is this where your lass comes from?

Bleedin' ell, I've actually been to that island - didn't see no booty girls mind....

Sounds like a similar place to here:

[Bubba]

Right, that's it - I promise not to post any more silly map refs  :D

[dave]

I was determined not to be outdone - i could have gone on all day otherwise. Lets call an end to this. :wink:

[Big Frank]

Why stop lads when theres great places like this to get your women from

You'll have to wait and see about the Very Very Big roof, good or choss, as jon has to negociate road works in York!

So we're off to Bat Butress at Brimham to tick the elusive Riddler (V4).

[Bubba]

Well, I have to negotiate a full day in front of the pc, under the harsh glare of the office striplights (I can just hear the violins starting up....)

Have a lovely day out bouldering, you barstewards !

[dave]

Your "very big roof" sounds a bit pokey if you ask me. I know of a roof in yorkshire thats about 12 foot high, 14 foot deep and about 100ft long, unclimbed. Now thats what i call a big roof.

Day, sadly not. After work climbing leaving Leeds at 4 get to Brimham at 5 climb until about 6:20 , pub until Midnight.

That'll be the Bike sheds at my old school.

Will you boys with your fast internet connections just fuck off  :sniper:

[Bubba]

Here it is:

http://www.yorkshiregrit.com/whitehouses.jsp

[dave]

After all the hype I'm completely underwhelmed.

[jonP]

Yep, it's a load of crap.  It has some of the worst unclimbed roof problems I've ever seen.  You're better off at Stinton Moor, or whatever it's called.

[dave]

damn right

[Bubba]

It looks a log better from the front but I must admit after FH's hype I was expecting something a bit more extensive!!

[Big Frank]

Like what, somthing the size of Kilnsey that no one had noticed?

[Bubba]

I was thinking a bit more like a grit version of Strone Ulladale....

[Big Frank]

Apparently this new esoteric venue has seen diffrent people visiting it every evening for the last week. It is covered in chalk & tick marks.

5 minutes walk further on nearly in Whitehouses is another fine boulder. With 3 or 4 reasonable problems of about V1/2.

[Bubba]

It is covered in chalk & tick marks.

I suppose this is why some people keep their new discoveries secret? I read ages ago that Andy Jack had his own "secret" bouldering area up in Yorkshire - probably known about by now but if I found a really top notch crag then I'd probabaly not put it online.

[dave]

Are you saying Fox Hagg isn't world class?

[Bubba]

Errrrmmm.....no, of course not, Fox Hagg is an amazing, inspiring venue of the utmost quality.... must go back there sometime  :wink:
