some of the bouldering was worse today... nearly every hold on power/stamina band was damp. cave area seemed alright when i left.

you were there again?  I think you may have a problem

very dry this eve. all bouldering in the cave dry (aside from a tiny bit of damp in cave p pocket). pb pockets all dry and sb undercuts dry.

routes wise all the usual middle ones are fine, mecca undercut looking dryest ive seen it for a month or so, and the forecast is good for more drying. left hand side also looking like its getting there.

when we left at about 9pm Thurs the bouldering was starting to feel damp, and there was run off along the left hand side. Middle routes looked ok up - apart from some run off at the top.

Condensed and a bit grim yesterday evening. Some stuff climbable though, although it makes what is dry feel pretty hard, so good training!!!

Take your midge repellant if theres no breeze!!

Started off OK this morning and was slowly getting worse.
Pinches wall, HTFML/Bens roof dry, most of the other bouldering dry but by 8am holds on Weedkiller trav were starting to get greasy in the cracks.
Very very wet around there from all the rain and it looks like some is condensing onto the crag.#
Most of the central routes looked alright.

Moved the Keen Roof repeat and lank vs morho banter to "News"

All dry yesterday evening and goodish conditions too.
