RA Wet at the end.

Davo · November 30, 2009, 05:51:56 pm

Left wall, arch area and in hell/pit of hell region dry today.

Pocket at end of RA soaking. Rest of RA in good nick.

Quite a bit of seepage near outside of cave and on right hand side.

Only real problem was keeping warm as it was baltic.

Doylo · December 01, 2009, 04:36:06 pm

its horribly cold right now

Still really wet up front including the end of Rock Attrocity but very dry along the back and on left wall traverse. However, at the very moment I was eyeing up the finishing crimps on The High Life a stream of water flowed out of nowhere and soaked the holds! Too cold in there at the moment as well.

Did anyone head down today? Wondering if a visit tomorrow would be worth it? Any chance of condensing or should it just be seepage on parts to worry about

Doylo · December 06, 2009, 05:40:07 pm

Good today, relatively dry and a bit warmer, t-shirt weather in fact.

Richie Crouch · December 06, 2009, 06:18:33 pm

Nice one Chris, may head over Tuesday if it doesn't hammer down in between

Davo · December 10, 2009, 08:29:16 pm

Seepage worse today but still climbable. Some had started to come through onto left wall.

Back area/arch/in hell was dry.

Ally Smith · December 11, 2009, 09:47:11 am

I wasn't suprised to have the cave to myself after dark last night

The small amount of seepage on left wall traverse was easily taken care of with a rag.

The 3rd slot on Rock Atrocity was swimming, but everything further in than this was holding out well against the seepage.

Orme closed next tuesday/wednesday due to filming. Cave drying out today.

Davo · December 11, 2009, 01:28:24 pm

Doylo · December 11, 2009, 03:54:10 pm

doylo's filming in the cave, not for the faint hearted and nothing to do with climbing

Doylo · December 17, 2009, 03:45:14 pm

Andy F · December 22, 2009, 08:18:10 pm

Anyone been today? Heading over tomorrow. What's dry and easy enough for a middle age punter?

Serpico · December 22, 2009, 08:31:10 pm

Do you know if the roads are OK? If I can get up early enough, and dig my car out I might come down.

Andy F · December 22, 2009, 08:33:25 pm

The roads are fine in Scouseland, not a drop of the white stuff for miles, come join the party.

fatneck · December 22, 2009, 11:50:08 pm

I reckon roads and conditions will be mint lads. Get on it! I'll be aiming to visit on Christmas Eve so if you could give us a conditions report when you get back that'd be great!

Monolith · December 23, 2009, 01:59:13 am
