Hmmm, know what you are saying. My thinking behind it was maybe the snow would be sooooooo cold there it may not be melting?

[north_country_boy]

Well maybe. But the top of the crag will get the sun......which happens to be where all the snow is sat waiting to melt down over the crag.......

[Nike Air]

Guess I ll have to hope someone has been today and knows for sure. Thx

[Sloper]

Heavy wintery showers / snow this afternoon and evening.

B South will be shit.

[The Sausage]

There's no snow on the top of Sole Power... really good nick on it today.

So did you do it or did you flounder?

I can't imagine you'd get called for a dab.

Now stop carping on about the weather.

[galpinos]

Any tips for somewhere dry in the peak today? It's quite bright over here in Manchester!

[Sloper]

Bright and sunny here now, I suspect that as it didn't freeze overnight that run off may be an issue.
Burbage south crag bouldering?

[Dolly]

Went to Curbar this am. Most of the crag was pretty wet. I didn't go to trackside etc but would imagine it would be wet with all the snow from the top definitely melting

He most certainly did! A three man team ascent of it yesterday morning! Great problem, and great in nick........

[Dolly]

Who was the 3rd?

Would I like it?

[north_country_boy]

Rob Smith.

You'd love it, Campus move, small crimp, dirty pocket/crimp thing, and a footless move. 

your leg might not without a fair few mats. 

[dave]

thats the main issue with that thing, avoiding that bloody rock plinth, or at least having at least a half dozen mats to make it OK. if it was a lowball i recon the climbing would only be 7b/+. shit i need to get back on this and "fire it" like jerry.

[north_country_boy]

Yeah tend to agree with you there Dave, although we all know that the current sequence wasn;t possible when Jerry did it, i.e before Heels were invented...... 

[dave]

if only mike lea had got the first ascent eh.

[205Chris]

Conditions report as of this afternoon.

Most of Burbage north is suffering from run off, including remergence buttress, I didn't wander over there but there were a few people climbing at Burbage west so assuming that there are bits of it that are OK.

Apparent North has got streaks down the front of it and a whole ton of sheep crap beneath it.
The Road down from the popular end to the plantation is still covered in a fair amount of snow.

Higgar's mostly dry along the main boulders.

Trackside boulder is more or less dry, Gorilla warfare dripping, didn't venture any further up the hill.

Anyone know what it's like in the Western Peak? Roaches in particular?

[Paul B]

The moves sound perfect, the height doesn't, I was really suffering after my last highballing day.

Hmmm I may have a do tomorrow, hopefully I'll bump into a few people with Uber pads as my Metolius things... well, I now agree with Dave, they were shit to start with,

[Jim]

burbage west in good nick, wet streak down WSS only affecting the starting foothold
western eye's bone dry but a little greasy in the sun got better around 4pm (and with a new sequence  )
go west, nose & nostril dry, little wet in places on top out but avoidable

burbage north looks fucked, don't bother

Drove past the Roaches today and virtually no snow left. Actually had a bit of sun this afternoon. Most Upper Tier problems will be fine. Ramshaw also looking largely OK.

Climbed at Secret Garden on Thursday afternoon and most of it was OK, aside from a relatively small wet streak down Zaff's as is normal. Problems on left (Tricky Traverse etc) and problems on right (DW etc) essentially OK. Should be good for the weekend.

[abarro81]

Anyone know what RHS, cratliffe, eatswood are like?

heard today that it (secret garden) was all wet; not seen myself though. Remerence was ok for a couple of hours this morning, but got knackered by run off about lunchtime.

Anyone been to the cliff or caley recently?

[Stubbs]

Just about all the blocs at caley are still sporting snow hats and it all looks a bit dank from the road. Reckon the cliff will be in good nick after the sun this week, better than it was last weekend with all the drips anyway!  Tim

[Zods Beard]

Anyone been out today, and got an update on the conditions? Much appreciated.
