Title: burbage valley boulders
Post by: dunnyg on February 22, 2018, 06:29:06 pm

Not too familiar with peak bouldering, are the valley boulders likely to be out of the easterly wind this weekend or will it be baltic?

Could be a bit chilly at the Burbage south generally, burbage north would be a better bet for shelter from the wind

Hmmm, it's looking like a southeasterly so I'd be inclined to say the opposite. Froggatt is always a good bet.

Burbizzle South Edge would be perfect in that wind non?

South edge will be sheltered but it looks like being a compromise, wind looks direct Easterly but air temperature set to be pretty cold too.  The more West facing the crag the more shelter you'll get but the later the sun will come around on to it. I think I'd look for tree cover too, Gardoms might be a good shout.

Gardoms or froggat might be a good shout, cheers for the collective knowledge!
