Forecast is good for the weekend, and it's been dry for the last couple of days, so it might be workable, but it was soaked yesterday, and if I had to guess I'd say no.

[nik at work]

Did you happen to glance at the Yorkshire Ripper/Soft Option/Massala/Smarter/Martyr area Serps?

[JohnM]

And what about Indian Summer?

All soaked.

And what about Indian Summer?

Dry up to the trav left, this had more chance of being OK for the weekend I think.

Other stuff that was dry:
Comedy/Pantomime
Man with a gun
Frankie
Sticky Wicket
The Ashes
Truth Drug/Ground Effect
Open Road
China Crisis
The Jekyll/Mr Nice
Little Ernie
Myra

Cheers for the info Serps.  Sounds like there is enough to go at at and more should have dried back after today.  Might check it out tomorrow.

[Steve Crowe]

Much drier today. But not completly!

[The Aaronator]

Update anyone?

[griffer]

nearly all is dry, the odd pocket wet but thats all folks.

[Andy F]

It was indeed in fine fettle, but very empty  . A couple more dry days and everything will  be just about perfect 

[Serpico]

Full Tilt?

[Andy F]

Didn't look closely, but should be workable. May have been damp at the bottom. Possibly.

[Tim Broughtonshaw]

Full Tilt?

Some clips in it, but the main pocket thingie where you do that heel toe was a bit gopping.  for a comparison no streaks on the north buttres but all pockets on urgent action looked wet... not soaked however but damp. As a comparative example grooved arete seemed all dry, looking at softoption (someones clips were in it) it looked dry as well.  So quite positive really.  Also the bulge looked dry apart from the groove at the top of the bulgette. but i didnt get on it so cannot comment more than a visual inspection.

Those are mine from last year. As are the ones in The Ripper. Glad they are still there.

Can you all purlease take your clips home with you in future, they really shouldn't be left there.

Indeed, don't want to get them nicked like a few people did last year.

Last year I found a rope at Kilnsey (which I managed to return), some liquid chalk at Cheedale (which I returned), and some very old and in my view 'unsafe' draws on Indian summer at Kilnsey (which I returned, when the owner returned from his holidays: Apparently old and worn draws seat better on the bolts.)
  Please don't call me a thief again Adam.
I'd never use a rope that had been left in-situ on a route as its history is unknown, so why should your draws be any different? I know and trust my gear.
I know they'll be two camps here, but there are some very good reasons not to encourage draws to be left in-situ.
Aside from convenience what are the arguments for?

Steve Crowe did jellybeans yesterday btw - must be drying back nicely.

[Stubbs]

Just out of interest Adam, will you use those clips now as they are, or change the sling, or just chuck them?  Been a mighty cold and wet winter to be leaving fabric outside!

[Steve Crowe]

The Bulge had some wet bits but not enough to stop me!

Wise Blood, DejaVu are both dry and spring cleaned!

Indeed most of Kilnsey was looking very dry as we left on monday evening.

...Watch out for the long queues.

[Adam Lincoln]

Please don't call me a thief again Adam.

Eh? What you on about Andy? Where did i call you a thief?  Am i missing something?

[TobyD]

Phew! Calm down geezers ....

the crag is absolutlely bone dry; you won't find much dampness anywhere. Get out there with yer nice soft brushes and get it brushed off and get sending! (it'll be gopping wet again in a few weeks, probably) T x

[griffer]

Even the north buttress is bone

[Andy F]

I can confirm the dryness. And the amazing mintyness 

[mendis]

How is Kilnsey surviving the rain? Was planning going either there or malham tomorrow. Can anyone fill me in on what lines are seeping etc?

[Davo]

Was excellent yesterday. All dry from what I could see, although I didn't venture any further down the crag than the Bulge area.

[Marky]

Anybody know if Urgent Action is still dry?
