Back from Das Tor.

Bens all ok - weed killer just about OK - runoff on stuff above it (bashers etc..). R&H wet. Looked like Mecca was dry. Stuff on the right gopping.

Nothing is permanently dry though having said that I've yet to see Ben's wet.

I think it is best to just have actual conditions reports on this tread rather than conditions speculation ie use the latest report, look at the forecast and roll your dice

The routes around Sardine tend to be the least likely to be wet at any time.

Ben's cave gets wet loads, due to condensation in the summer and seepage from midwinter onwards.

I agree, though I do feel it requires some :jab: in order for some condition reports to come about sometimes.

No problem with "the anybody been recently?" type post to elicit a response

On Sunday, pretty much everything was dry from Chimes to A Little Extra
Can't comment if its seeped since or on the routes through the cave

The seepage was coming through right of this, and seemed to be getting worse

LH walls (Body Machine, Indecent) all soaked

Cheers all. Does anyone know if any routes up to 8a are dry, or mostly dry? Never done routes there so don't really know the layout.

Cant think of anywhere else that could be dry this weekend....
Anyone know how the routes on the RHS are after recent rains? Sardine, Toadside, Obscene Toilet etc?

All of Bens Roof was dry.
Everything else was gopping.

There are now two (we assume human) turds that have appeared, one in the back of the cave and one under the lip of Keen Roof.
I guess you can tell what they thought of that problem...

Smeggy, but not gopping so much.
If you are training, I wouldn't waste your time unless you are happy to mess about on Ben's Roof.

That said, I don't know how things are looking up there weather wise this week, so it might bee worth a lookin after a few days of wind and low humidity / no rain.
The be sure, what I assume is the top, looked very wet on Sat.
