pedestal arete, banana republic, drey, two squirrels...

[dobbin]

Would you have a gander at the mighty Zoo York for me pls?

[Stubbs]

I tell you what I'm off to the wall tonight but on my way home tomorrow I'll go for a headtorch mission and check out the problems for you. If I had to guess now I'd say:

• Pedestal Arete: Dryable/Climbable but easy topout will be minging
• Drey bloc: has some plants on top of it I think so probably pretty ming
• Banana republic: arete will probably be wet but on its way to dry
• Nicey nicey zoo zoo: probably all climbable now except for top, which i assume will be a green slime slab of death for another couple of days

• Pedestal Arete: easy topout

 

[Stubbs]

You didn't drop the topout?  Ohhh dear.

Drizzle over the Chevin this morning.

[Iesu]

minging wet today in the garden of Yeadon

[andy_e]

You didn't drop the topout?  Ohhh dear.

Yeah, you were there too!

[andy_e]

Conditions were amazing at roadside on saturday, but then it rained 

[andy_e]

Roadside was in similarly good nick today, despite all the rain we had yesterday! It was raining in Leeds too apparently today but we had blue skies and good conditions at roadside!

[Zods Beard]

Anyone been up there recently, thinking of heading up there tomorrow. Thanks.

[Zods Beard]

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, anyone go today?

[Stubbs]

Not much use to you Z.B, but checked on the way home yesterday and everything at the roadside is bone dry.

[TomP]

Went yesterday and it was perfect, everything is dry. 'Tis the season to be jolly. My mate manged New Jerusalem after less than a year of climbing, his first 7a. I managed to bag second (or maybe third ascent) of Guacamole SDS. Fuckin wild and painfull!

[andy_e]

Thomas E? 

[(woz)]

Nice work Tom(+/-s)! Shame I wasnt there to throw you down the hill this time.

[TomP]

Yeah it was Thomas E. He's pulling hard at the moment!
I took a couple of those big swings on Guacamole SDS but you weren't there to break my fall Dan : ( I actually put pads in the right palce this tiem and told people to run for their lives!

[SteveM]

It was lovely on roadside last night. Apologies to anyone who got crowded out by the LMC arriving enmasse.

[Nigel]

  Hey all, there is talk of a few of us coming up Caley way tomorrow, could one of you Yorkshire wads give us an assessment of current conditions please? Is much dry or is it a glacier field? Also, as a fallback, is Almscliff and its roads OK? Cheers.

[Johnny Brown]

Just take a yard brush and you'll be fine.

[Stubbs]

I'll pop out later and have a look for you Nige, I can't see it being remotely climbable, but we'll see!

[Nigel]

Tim - cheers mate, I will hang on your every word.

JB - thanks for nothing. I will now set the leotard legend on you.

[Johnny Brown]

We did this in the pub didn't we? IT'LL BE FINE.

[Stubbs]

Care for a small wager JB?  What is your definition of fine?  I guess it depends on what Nige wants to climb, I'll be back in a bit somewhat colder, but full of information!

[dobbin]

I want to know what the blazes you are still doing in Yorkcestershire?

[Johnny Brown]

I should mention I won't be joining Nige at Caley... but I know the crag well. Nowt ventured, nowt gained youth. Just remember the yardbrush.
