Any knowledge? What's the likelihood of it being dry so i can free the screaming slaves from my tick-list of terror?

I was climbing there on Monday. SSLH crimp was wet but SSRH was dry. Beauty of Being Numb was climbable but start hold was still a bit damp. AOSD still very wet undercuts. Woodwell central was suprisingly dry and there seems to have been some trees cleared. Didnt get across to the dark side.

I haven't recently been to the crag but I visited numerous other limestone venues in the vicinity over the weekend (Hyning, Warton, Fairy Steps etc.) and they were all very dry, make of that what you will...

Was down at Toms last night and it was pretty much bone, only very slight dampness on lowest holds but not affecting the climbing at all.

Had a quick look at the other bit and most stuff climbable there too.

It was pretty much bone dry everywhere I went at the end of last week - Warton, Toms Roof, Woodwell RHS. A little dampness on AOSD but otherwise fine after a bit of rain.

There may be the odd evening drive by from the Liverpool lot if we get out shit together.  Tuesday and Thursday being the more likely days.

Oh and also over the road is banned but how banned?

I mean is it banned whilst some delicate access negotiations are undertaken with a view to securing long-term access and any use of the crag would jepordise any chance of arranging access in the future?

Or is it just banned and everyone politely feigns ignorance when discovered and moves on when asked?

I'm going to defer to Greg and not go there then, which is a shame but hey-ho.

As for conditions any ideas? I'm guessing sweaty and humid if anything like to day but as long as it isn't actually wet I'll still be interested in going.

Your thoughts people?

Went to Tom's last night. Most of it was climbable around closer and cruifix kiss. Some of the starting holds were a little damp but a bit of chalk and towel action got them sorted for a breif window of opprtunity. I think most of it should be dry after another glorious day in lancashire! Forgot how hard work this place was and felt pretty spanked after an hour or so!

I went on Thursday.  Did Closer etc but the low rock right of this was wet.  And it was 25 degrees, so it was pretty uncomfortable!!

Pretty good this morning.  After the rain, I was a little surprised everything was dry.  A little greasy, but otherwise top notch.

I went on Friday, 20 degrees.  Sweaty and greasy as hell.  I think it was too humid really.  You could still get stuff done though.
