Kudos wall soaking wet this morning. Was drying back nicely by the afternoon, should be OK tomorrow evening I'd have thought. Big puddle under Rubicon traverses. Sissy & Rubicon were dry but everything else there wet with run off

Just been. Kudos wall all bone dry (inc HFC For Nai). Traverses area boggy with odd wet holds but mostly ok. Caviar had several wet streaks. That's as far as I went.

How bad did Caviar look? Is there any chance that it could be OK by tomorrow evening or is that fantasy land optimism?

quite a few streaks and some wet holds, mostly on the boulder problem from memory. I wouldn't be too optimistic but there's a good breeze on it today and lots of sun forecast for tomorrow so maybe it could dry...

Caviar still streaky, wouldn't give it much hope for this weekend.

Still flooded? Has anyone been to the "other place" recently? How's that looking? I have unfinished business with Moffattrocity. And wouldn't mind a go on Quentessence...

I don't know, maybe I'm making it up, I thought it was a 7C that reverses Moffattrocity?

So you would climb jerrico then reverse it or something? Never heard of it. Anyone know the score?

Quentessence is a thing at Stoney isn't it? never heard of anything given that name at X. Reversing Moffatrocity from Jericho start would be nowhere near 7c.

If Quentin hasn't done a problem called Quentessence then he should, it's a great name. Some monstrous dyno would be right.

Quintessence is Pete Kirton's hang in Tom's roof.

Quent informs me that Quentessence is also in Tom's Roof. I appear to have made that other problem up in some long-forgotten reverie. Anybody got a copy of the limestone cowboys topo of the place?
