keen to get up here over the weekend, does anyone know what its like at the minute?
has it rained there lately, and if so is it likely to be dry?
cheers

It's been pretty decent, so if it doesn't rain it should be pretty much bone.

was there 2 weeks ago and it was bone, I doubt it will be anything other than mint

I haven't been for a couple of weeks but given the lack of rain lately, I should imagine that it will be pretty dry all over. Unless it rains significatnly between now and Saturday, it should stay dry and as long as its not utterly lashing it down, you should be fine to climb at Toms roof and the other place that shall not be mentioned.

Obviously, I add the caveat that I haven't been there this week so someone with more up to date info may be of more use.

I was there this morning and it's bone dry, although it was raining on an doff so it was very greasy. At least the rain showers gave me time to BRUSH THE FUCKING TICK MARKS OFF.

After sampling the 'delights' of Dalton and the delights of Newbiggin crag last weekend I was keen to head here today, meeting the great GCW would've been the icing on the cake. Curse my job interview. Except if I get it.

Anyone know if it'll be dry tomorrow? If not, what about Warton?

youngy · June 10, 2010, 04:37:55 pm

anybody been today? or anywhere else southlakes? wondering if its worth the drive over tomorrow?

v6power · June 11, 2010, 05:31:44 pm

I was there today trying the angel deelite. Its bone dry.

A little off topic but there was someone trying At the heart of it anyone know who they were?

youngy · June 11, 2010, 11:26:00 pm

we were down by tom's buttress and it was dry as well

andy_e · June 12, 2010, 03:21:51 am

It was probably blackpool sam trying at the heart of it all.

Dhanny · June 13, 2010, 05:47:51 pm

there yesterday eve and it was mint!

v6power · June 14, 2010, 08:14:14 am

What else has Blackpool Sam done? I saw him do most things at o'ert road.

Zods Beard · June 14, 2010, 09:37:44 am

Is it likely to be dry today after all the rain?

Quite a lot, but he likes to keep quiet about things.

Greg mentioned on LB that it's still dry, so you should be OK for a visit Mr Beard.

GCW · July 02, 2010, 07:29:41 am

Not been, but I reckon it'd be worth a go.

Zods Beard · July 16, 2010, 01:05:14 pm

The St Bee's dream has died for now and its back to the grind. Anyone know if its worth a trip tomorrow? Thanks.

Jim · July 16, 2010, 09:47:21 pm

I think I can safely predict it'll be gopping

GCW · July 16, 2010, 10:33:38 pm

Usually worth a punt, just in case. If it's wet bob round to Trowbarrow or Warton.

BenF · July 17, 2010, 06:38:29 pm

Pretty much all dry today, every problem we did or tried at all areas of Woodwell was climbable. A few heavy showers made no difference and the area had clearly had heavy rain lately, but again no seepage.

Jim · July 17, 2010, 06:52:43 pm

looks like I'll be needing a plate and a knife and fork

GCW · July 17, 2010, 06:58:54 pm

Your problem Jim, is you just don't have the Silverdale Faith.

I'm off to lick my thumb and rub it on my shirt and look smug.
