Yesterday there was one wet hold at the start of Dalliance but Holger still pulled on it, do-able.

Thanks Chris

Dry enough to RP today....

Most of crag was dry, few wet holds on north butress and start of daliance area routes...

Conditions weren't great though, majorly humid, midgey and heavy showers all day....might be more seepage in next few days

Mostly dry yesterday, some seepage on N.Buttress inc Urgent. GA seeping on the undercut by the 2nd clip, Daliance damp upto the 3rd clip.

Someone (other Adam?) was trying GA on Tuesday 18th. It was largely dry but a couple of holds were damp, though not terminally so. Most other things were climbable too.

Pretty much all dry yesterday. Some dampness on N.Butress. Full Tilt damp at start, UA with some dampness in the pockets, most other stuff fine.

By the end of yesterday the majority of the crag was FUBAR. Some stuff left of Directissima still hanging on, N.Buttress gone, probably for the year, GA and stuff right - forget it  :wall: more wetness will come through overnight. Stuff right of GA hanging on as of last night but don't count on it staying dry. Malham season has been called.

That should read stuff left of GA hanging on (Subculture etc...)

Even nappies weren't drying the holds quickly enough yesterday. ???
We (I) need an Indian summer.
Incidentally - it's probably worth avoiding this coming tuesday as the local Kilnsey show will be on.

Optimistic after your last post? You've probably put everyone off now Andy, yet I can see what's on your mind.
Time for a last looksee before the kids?  :-\

You guess correct. It's a vain hope, but hope none the less. Like grabbing water.

i suspect grabbing water is very akin to what climbing at Kilnsey might be like today.  :wall:

if anyone foolish

we were......didn't know it was on till I saw a banner on the grassington road.  Think they rounded up the three most annoying people in yorkshire to speak/shout down the speaker system all day.

Anyway, as for the crag, not in the best of shape either I'm afraid.  Probably quicker to run through what was climbable rather than not:
Metal guru leftwards fine, sticky wicket and 50 for 5 looked alright (ashes wet up top), comedy & pantomime fine.  ground effect and truth drug fine, frankie damp right at top but climbable, china crisis area screwed, north butress and subculture/grooved arete area screwed, including myra hindley, etc.  Hope that helps.

Quite a few heavy showers passed over today as well.... :thumbsdown:
