crouch says you're gonna pop in for some man time

clgladiator · December 09, 2010, 11:18:35 am

Whats it looking like at the moment, thinking of heading over tomorrow, particulary interested in the RH side.

Richie Crouch · December 09, 2010, 09:30:39 pm

Was a little condensed but if it gets a breeze tonight it should be ok tomorrow.

The usual holds were wet - flat thing on left wall trav, broken heart finger jug.

The stuff on the right was ok really.

The slopey handhold/foothold on the R.A./LouF ramp needed drying a bit as did the rail on lou F.

Arch is all dry but the slopers were a bit smeggy in the tropical 5 degree temps!

Apart from hordes of Scousers worrying about crucial hold loss (and therefore demise of lifetime ambitions), what's the cave like at the moment? Anyone been this week? Doylo?

joel · December 16, 2010, 08:38:22 am

All OK yesterday, pretty much identical to what Richie said.

Jim · December 16, 2010, 08:50:59 am

yeah, great nick really apart from the odd damp hold

Nice one, saved me having to go and wank jim off

youngy · December 28, 2010, 02:38:36 pm

guessing you have finished molesting the wobble block then Chris?

Beastio · December 30, 2010, 12:33:01 pm

The piece of shit is soaked right through, never seen it this wet before. Everything is wet, RA, Left Wall, The Arch. One dry right hand hold on Lou Ferrino.

Will be out for at least 3 or 4 days.

Jim · December 30, 2010, 12:44:46 pm

snow melt + no wind = high humidity = wet cave

Rabies · December 30, 2010, 01:54:08 pm

A few of us headed there on Monday in the hope of dry rock. Everything sopping as Beastio describes including Split Infinity cave and Pill Box wall. Everything is wet in the Peak and Yorkshire too!! It's not fair

andy_e · December 30, 2010, 02:18:16 pm

Roland rat? I see the resemblance!

Rabies · December 30, 2010, 02:22:52 pm

Haha less of it Emery! It's actually Roland the Rat's accomplice, Kevin the Gerbil!! Just to annoy you I'm off to Font tomorrow.......touche.

andy_e · December 30, 2010, 02:26:48 pm

Bastard, sure you don't want to do a lovely mini-dissertation about normal faulting and let me go to font instead?

Rabies · December 30, 2010, 02:30:07 pm

Ooooh I don't know

Haven't done much structural geology for a while now!!

andy_e · December 30, 2010, 02:31:27 pm

I haven't done anything but structural geology, mixed in with far too much Facebook Studies, for over a week now

Rabies · December 30, 2010, 02:34:20 pm

Ah the life of a student, I kinda miss it (at least all the free time anyway). I'm sure it will all be worth it when you finish. Will think of you in Font
