I love the tor. I quite like Malham. They are not nearly as good as any of the venues you listed.
Cheers for info and yeah, I figured that much but got to make the best of what's available. Got to get to these soon...

The Tors definitely not pristine limestone...
Hi Chris, maybe not but there's a fair few stars knocking about and a few things I'd really like to do. Got to be better than scrapping around on some of the arguably more suitable winter venues in this neck of the woods... See you soon at LPT  :bounce:

Seepy, squidgy holds,. Not in the best nick. Some folk on the central routes. Didn't stick around.

Yesterday morning went past to have a look. Everything was gopping wet including Ben's. Higher up looked better and tin of/sardines looked ok. Weather/wind throughout the day may have dried it up a bit

just as a second hand update, Leeroy said the central routes were all good late on yesterday so hopefully the strong wind has helped.

Hi Owen. You should be fine, pretty much everything is fully dry from mecca to the far right routes wise as is all the bouldering.

Left hand side appears to be climb able. Climbers were on the prow today.

I was there Thurs - most stuff right of push up was climbable although not immaculate, bit of gunk just right of pinches and some greasy footholds on p.band.

It is bone. Well apart from left end, but that's climbable.

Anyone been this weekend who could tell me if bouldering tonight is going to be worth it or a seepy mess? Particularly after Powerband.

It'll be fine. Was fine on Thurs. Once dryish it takes a lot of rain to increase the seepage. Looking on here http://www.buxtonweather.co.uk/ at local rainfall totals I'd say it will be fine. Good drying weather between showers atm as well.
