Anyone been up to whitehouses near Brimham? Went up there on mon eve and the place is mint :D.
Anyone got beta for the Rageh Omaar problem? Proper 'ard with a mad looking project start from the back of the roof  :shock: and other projects to stop all but the hardcore!

Sorry mate, I was hoping Uptowngirl was going to see your post and would have been able to put you right on the beta.

I'd  like to go there and have a look but coming from the Peak, usually head for Brimham / Earl / etc instead. I'd only be able to do about 3 problems anyway  :cry:

Whitehouses a taste of things to come.

At this stage there are two, one thats got to recieve a good brushin' with a superb roof, desperate dyno and a load of hard sit downs.

The other has been teased out of an ex peak activist and is fantastic, I went yesterday, two superb V2 aretes and a desperate central wall at V6/7+, spent an hour and a half on it and nearly at the top!
(not sure if the side pulls out towards the arete are in but I'm using them!)

The site is totaly in Jons hands nothing to do with me, the torture victim will have a say as there is still stuff to do.

The crag with the roof will go on as soon as we've done it!

Depends on this weather but hopefully after a bit more work this week We'll have enough to make a trip worthwhile to moptopbloc et al - already seen some Peak raiders grabbing new classics there so it's worth the trip north!

The place of which Uptowngirl speaks is indeed home to some three star fair. Hopefully come winter Jesus jelly-mould, Yellow belly sap-sucker and the Diamond crack will be unveiled for all to love!

From what I've seen there a lot more to do at that venue.

But just wait until you see the Junk Yard Boulder!, but thats another story at another venue.

I drink it at the Closed Shop on commonside, which contrary to popular opinion is where all the happening cats in the sheffield scene hang (broadie? thats like so 1995).
