[TonyS]

 
Cheers,

Thanks for the heads up

[masonwoods101]

Awsome

[abarro81]

This morning:
Left side all wet.
Mecca undercut/pocket wet. Extension pocket had big wet streak out of it.
Weedkiller, Ben's etc all quite damp
Central section ok
Powerband slots damp

Hard to tell how much of the damp slots was seepy and how much was condensation. It was still, humid and greasy on the dry rock. Needs some sun and wind on it to sort it out really.

Better today - basically back to mecca rightwards being dry, mecca ext looked back in business too.

Re fat boy Ted's hold break on Green Alt (couldnt find the thread), its slightly harder and more minging, but still doable at pokey 7c+

[Dicker]

Any more updates on right hand side - i.e. powerband pockets?

[Whyatt]

All good for powerband

Have added a seperate thread, but worth repeating here for the Tor regulars:

I had a call from Stephen Moores - the bailiff for the Wye - today, they are having problems with poachers in the vicinity of Raventor. He didn't seem to think it was climbers, but will be policing the area heavily for the next few weeks and mentioned there have been climbers camping in vans at the tor. If that's what you're up to, and you don't want to be rudely awoken in the middle of the night, he suggested putting a note on your dashboard, though I daresay a rope and gear might suffice. Likewise, if anyone has been there late and seen anything suspicious, information would be appreciated and would help with the improving relationships between climbers and fisherman in the dale. PM me and I can pass on his phone number, though he regularly passes the tor in a pickup with a wooden box on the back.

Not really a conditions report but I'm sure some of you regulars can help - got a short day on Sunday and was wondering when the sun comes on to the tor.  Was thinking of trying to climb from about 9 to 13, is this realistic.

Thanks

[abarro81]

Sun comes round about 1pm IIRC, bit later on the shorter stuff on the right

[IanP]

Cheers, sounds like a goer and the sun may help to ensure I get back on time!

Will the tor be dry enough for some bouldering tomorrow?

Will the tor be dry enough for some bouldering tomorrow?

Hope so Nick

[J_duds]

Tor bouldering was all dry today, hope it'll stay dry for tomorrow

[TobyD]

As of Friday 2nd August: mostly pretty bone other than a couple of streaks down low left of Mecca, but that was before the world's heaviest thunderstorm last night...

[shark]

Was good this morning Toby. PushUp start is dry again and Indecent start drying up. Rest of the crag is fine.

[Beastly Squirrel]

Was there yesterday (monday 5th august) and most stuff was dry dispite heavy rain. Far right hand side of crag was a bit damp but all stuff further left was pretty much all dry with occational slightly damp hold at the back of the cave.

[shark]

Pretty much all dry today. Surprised how dry Rubicon was as well - ie Caviar dry.

[B-Bird]

How's left hand side looking?

[Wil]

All good today.

[dunnyg]

Is it likely to stay dry despite tomorows lovely forecast.?

[jimpratt]

Does anyone know what it's like at the mo?
Cheers,Jim.

[Beastly Squirrel]

Yeah I would be intrested to know how dry it is atm?? Will it be dry over the next few days?? Thanks

[highrepute]
