Mecca undercut and pocket soaked. Extension upper pocket before traverse finally gave out today. I severely doubt this pocket will be back in commission any time soon. Kabaah sidepull after leaving Mecca and resting niche also wet. Some good sport was had in the cave area, Ben's/ Weedkiller still dry as were Sardine / Toadside. Will Mecca undercut come back into commission this year? Time will tell

Any idea's how the cave and powerband area looking at the mo? Cheers

[Seb]

Any news?

[alaan]

Popped down today - predictably horrible. Sardine etc. looked dry but pretty much all the bouldering had some form of wet streak down it.

[Dr Lokov]

Drying off nicely. Weed killer doable with minimal towelling. Pinches wall slightly damp and some seepage in powerband. Surprisingly no one else was there today!

[peaches69]

anyone been recently?

[Whyatt]

Anyone know how the tor is??

[dobbin]

Fucked I would guess!

Last I heard, Ben's roof was climbable to a point, but everything else is totally out.

[T_B]

Had a look yesterday. Ben's Roof is dry apart from one or two damp holds on the lip (you could do the high exit without any damp holds). Apart from that, everything else bouldering-wise was wet.

I went out towards burbage today but remembered en route that gritstone is awful and thought I'd chance the tor.

The cave was in pretty good nick. Weedkiller traverse all dry, ben's roof looked good (lip was wet but I'm not totally sure which holds are used for the finish. The main tick marked one looked okay though. Pinches wall was crying out for some action.

Cave problem wet.

Powerband seemed oddly dry, a two finger pocket after the pinches seemed the worst (but the actual part of the hold you use was dry). Probably climbable though.

Routes above the cave were pretty good also, definitely for the shorter routes and you might get away woth some of the extensions as it wasn't too bad.

Undercuts of mecca were pretty bad but after that it looked good. Brandenberg gate was soaked (for the massive wads out there). LHS/prow was all out.

Sardine/Tin of looked reasonable, maybe some run-off in the upper half.

Some RHS routes doable also.

No idea how to put photos on here but I'll stick some on the Peak Sport Lift's page if anyone is interested.

So yeah, my optimism was rewarded (though I'm injured punter who couldn't repeat the problems I've done before...).

The sun even came out before I left, crazy shit.

[James Malloch]

Oh, and there was a long sleeved Animal top (Dark and light grey) along with some soaking towels. They're all behind the block beneath mecca so it's not looking too messy.

was there also today, ben roof starting hold was soaked (the 2 finger pocket). the routes around sardin all looked bone dry, toadside attraction in brine obscence gesture/toilet, toiler and call of nature all dooable. boot boys dry, out of my tree pocket wet, the traverses are soaked still from seepage, nothing else doable till saline drip which is bone dry.

I must have got the wrong starting holds for Ben's, oops! Powerband didn't seem too bad about 3ish, unless I was using all the wrong holds (I've not actually tried it). Grabbed everything I thought was in and didn't emerge with wet hands. Though if you've checked it I could well have made a mistake!

Powerband finishing 2 finger pocket was soaked

Keen roof looking remotely dry?

[Kingy]

I was there on sunday and the lip foothold out right was wet but it was otherwise dry. This could be towelled dry

[Wil]

Went down today.

Some seepage. A team on Sardine/Toadside/Tin Of are which looked basically dry, not perfect by any means.

Obscene Toilet and the Toilet were ok, although some holds are threatening to seep and the undercuts are a little damp.

Obscene Gesture had one hold just before the second bolt that was wet. Looked to be improving through the day and might be dryable.

[abarro81]

What about stamina band area?

[Wil]

I didn't really look to be honest! At a glance there certainly wasn't a ridiculous amount of seepage there, but no idea which pockets may or may not be dry.

[abarro81]

Cool, cheers

[groovedog]

I had a mooch there on Sunday when I was passing by. Most of the bouldering on the right was wet, including power and slots, with the current drying wind and low rain for the rest of the week, should be perhaps worth a look at the weekend?

[abarro81]

This afternoon:
Mecca leftwards all wet, chimes maybe doable, hard to know, central routes appeared dry and got climbed on. PB/SB damp but probably dryable by those with the psyche, certainly workable (foothold on pillar too wet to be dryable). With a glorious forecast of heavy rain sweeping through, this conditions report will self-destruct in 5 seconds....

[abarro81]

Getting marginally drier - PB/SB now dryable, weedkiller slightly damp but dryable, Mecca still looked like it needed a week of two of dry and nice weather
