You'd better pull yourself together or they'll take that username off you.

dave · December 21, 2011, 10:28:28 am

also bear in mind limestone ticks done with the clocks on GMT don't count.

It's been like that for a week or so I think now, so I doubt it'll change overnight.

Forgot to update on the weekend: Saturday was basically the same as you describe,. Also kudos wall was all screwed with run off, as was the place up the road.

I think the works might be dry today

Pissing it down west side...

leeroy · January 02, 2012, 10:03:05 pm

anyone ventured down lately? heard something on the other channel about some areas of blackwell being dry aswell.

Richie Crouch · January 03, 2012, 10:21:04 am

I was there on Sunday and Ben's Roof was very dry as were cave problem and weedkiller trav. There was wetness on undercuts at the back and the lip to the right was wet. All problems right of pinches had wet undercuts/breaks/seepage on at least 1 or 2 holds. Guessing yesterday's decent weather may have helped a bit?

shark · January 07, 2012, 04:54:10 pm

Conditions today (Sat 7th) the same as reported by Richie

leeroy · January 08, 2012, 05:51:41 pm

second hand info from mr.carmichael, as of this morning

He says that powerband area was soaked and that weedkiller and the cave were fairly damp.

probably seepage from the last few wet weeks.

shark · January 08, 2012, 06:01:45 pm

Soggier than yesterday, lots more seepage. Most bouldering out except Ben's Roof.

abarro81 · January 16, 2012, 09:04:41 pm

If anyone goes by can they have a quick look to see if mecca + extension is dry please? Ta

joe cook · January 17, 2012, 09:30:01 am

mecca and extension both wet on sunday. icicles at the bottom, and dripping streaks on the traverse and groove, then goppy above.

dave · January 17, 2012, 10:01:42 am

This is the crags way of telling you its grit season.

shark · January 21, 2012, 05:04:44 pm

gcarmichael · January 24, 2012, 08:02:42 pm

anybody know if the tor will be in an ok condition tomorrow?

erm, sam · January 24, 2012, 08:43:53 pm

Look at the top of the thread, it says "reports" not "forecasts".

Duma · January 24, 2012, 11:28:02 pm

Had a bad day sam?

erm, sam · January 25, 2012, 12:43:08 pm
