Bumped into Abarro in Tesco's an hour ago. It sounded pretty grim today - misty with the rock condensing out.

Was there with Abarro today, and indeed it was grim re condensation.

I didn't have a proper look at the LH end Aly, but from the car I'm pretty sure I noticed a substantial damp section on the start of the LH routes. Didn't look in enough detail to see if it happened to avoid all the crucial holds but I suspect it didn't. I'd give you a 20% chance of dryness. Exactly.

Cheers! Although it was actually yesterday, hence I treated myself to a session at the Tor.

Does this mean that the Tor is now doomed to being a sodden moss for the rest of winter?

Not necessarily! but possibly. Sorry, I know this isnt much use, but thats about as accurate as it is possible to be. I might try and look on Wednesday. If I do, I will let you know.

No, everything was dry on sunday, conditions were pretty good in fact, including the direct starts to Indecent/Body Machine etc.


p.s. cheers for the info Simon/Reeve, I'm glad I didn't head down on saturday now.

Ok today but slightly damp at the back of some slots (dryable though), not sure if it's stuff starting to seep through or just a bit of ming from the morning as apparantly it was drizzling out there earlier in the day.

unfortunately "calling" the grit doesn't mean its always dry when you want it.
