got a team down from the Lakes in the wall this eve washed out of Porth Ysgo, wondering what the conditions are like in the cave this week, anyone been down recently?

JohnM · September 12, 2011, 06:13:08 pm

I was in there yesterday. It was mainly ok with seepage in the usual places (i.e. first left hand on Louie, finger jug you get on Crucial Times etc). Should dry out well with all this wind unless it has rained a lot.

cheers John, think they're gonna risk Ysgo again tomorrow but will pass the knowledge on

ducko · September 12, 2011, 11:05:59 pm

ok today!

Doylo · September 16, 2011, 09:37:48 am

Three Nine · September 16, 2011, 09:53:39 am

Doylo · September 16, 2011, 10:07:36 am

i would come and show you how to do Beaver Righthand but i'm working

Three Nine · September 19, 2011, 09:52:51 pm

Pretty fucked yesterday and moderately fucked today. Various things you could work bits of, but left wall and maybe rockatrocity were about the only things you could actually do.

The Sausage · September 20, 2011, 08:05:10 am

...and Trigger Cut. Not that I did...

ducko · September 20, 2011, 01:31:19 pm

been cave today, bit wet but most stuff is dry.

another thing,

there seems too be an awful lot of litter being left there at the moment and its not going too give climbers a good name/reputation i filled a carrier bag with bits i found today, im sure its only a few who do litter but can everyone make sure they take there rubbish home with them and respect the area

Pantontino · September 20, 2011, 02:55:23 pm

Ducko, it might not be climbers. A few years back I went through a weekly battle picking up bag loads of rubbish here. A crew of boy racers had taken to hanging out on Marine Drive late at night - and each time they parked up they would spill out cans, fast food pakaging etc.

I contacted the Ormes warden, just to let her know that it wasn't us. She already knew about it as an issue and understood it had nothing to do with climbers.

Still, it's good to pick the stuff up. makes the place nicer and you're generating good karma.

Here, have a point from me!

All that being said, if any climbers are dropping litter, Ducko's message should be shouted loud and clear: Don't drop it and if you see any, pick it up!

The Sausage · September 20, 2011, 09:06:40 pm

Definitely quite a bit of finger tape lying around. Also, can folk try not to leave the in-situ mats underneath a drip please. Common sense I'd have thought. I'd have thought tucked away at the bottom of the cave is where they should be stored at the end of the day.
Updates this week much appreciated.

As a word of 'warning', there's a stag-do planning to be there saturday. Might not be the best day if you're looking for peace & quiet. Although if you need a pad stack to practice the move to the shot-hole on Trigger Cut, I reckon it'll be just about right...

Doylo · September 20, 2011, 10:02:04 pm

Ye the Cave's banned sat for ben pritch's stag do, no invite, no entry...

onrocks · September 21, 2011, 06:54:06 pm

The other forum has reports of access limits to LPT and Parisellas. Apparently with some sort of decision to re-open the Orme, or not, being taken today (Wednesday). Anyone know anything?

Doylo · September 21, 2011, 07:43:21 pm

Its open now

Richie Crouch · September 21, 2011, 10:34:47 pm

Anyone in there this evening know what it was like?

Mainly interested in the 2nd Left hold on Lou F and the undercut pinch on RA, cheers!

ducko · September 21, 2011, 11:16:37 pm

im not saying its only climbers but i cant see boy racers leaving 2ltr bottles of spring water and bits of old tape

i may just palm the blame off onto the ramblers

Doylo · September 25, 2011, 09:24:49 pm

The temperatures predicted to shoot up to 24 degrees on Tuesday so the cave could well suffer from temperature inversion and gop out

ducko · September 29, 2011, 08:20:05 pm

usual area by ferrino/RA is wet, and everything feels greasy!

Dexter · October 01, 2011, 11:38:40 am

heya guys im heading up for some cave loving tomorrow anyone know how its looking?

Doylo · October 01, 2011, 07:41:42 pm

Robl · October 03, 2011, 09:12:24 am

Popped yer cave cherry at last Rob..

Did you enjoy? What did you tick?

Robl · October 03, 2011, 09:53:03 am

Yeah really enjoyed it tom-tom. No idea what I climbed tho, Katz pointed me up stuff. I ended up doing 4 problems in total and flashed one of them. worked rock atrocity, I'm hopeful that will go next session as i just din't have the beans left to link it.
