Anyone been up to whitehouses near Brimham? Went up there on mon eve and the place is mint :D.
Anyone got beta for the Rageh Omaar problem? Proper 'ard with a mad looking project start from the back of the roof :shock: and other projects to stop all but the hardcore!
-
Cheers for all that useful beta!! :wink:
Got problem anyway :rocker2: and reccommend it. Mind you i expect your all busy in the peak :D
-
Sorry mate, I was hoping Uptowngirl was going to see your post and would have been able to put you right on the beta.
I'd like to go there and have a look but coming from the Peak, usually head for Brimham / Earl / etc instead. I'd only be able to do about 3 problems anyway :cry:
-
billy.
Whitehouses a taste of things to come.
Keep an eye on the definative Yorkshire bouldering site and you wont be disapointed.
-
You mean the Crag X's that Jon has talked about?
Anything any good? yg.com is looking ace...
-
At this stage there are two, one thats got to recieve a good brushin' with a superb roof, desperate dyno and a load of hard sit downs.
The other has been teased out of an ex peak activist and is fantastic, I went yesterday, two superb V2 aretes and a desperate central wall at V6/7+, spent an hour and a half on it and nearly at the top!
(not sure if the side pulls out towards the arete are in but I'm using them!)
-

You mean you tortured him you bastards!
Sounds good - will they be going onto the site after you've done everything?
-
The site is totaly in Jons hands nothing to do with me, the torture victim will have a say as there is still stuff to do.
The crag with the roof will go on as soon as we've done it!
-
Depends on this weather but hopefully after a bit more work this week We'll have enough to make a trip worthwhile to moptopbloc et al - already seen some Peak raiders grabbing new classics there so it's worth the trip north!
-
The place of which Uptowngirl speaks is indeed home to some three star fair. Hopefully come winter Jesus jelly-mould, Yellow belly sap-sucker and the Diamond crack will be unveiled for all to love!
-
Yellow belly sap-sucker
:shock:
-
From what I've seen there a lot more to do at that venue.
But just wait until you see the Junk Yard Boulder!, but thats another story at another venue.
-
What grade will the lip traverse go at?
Might get up there tomorrow afternoon
-
What happened to mr yorkshiregrit's ponytail?
-
In reply Adam Lincoln.
The one on the Whitehouses Topo (No 11. Project) it is absolutley desperate. Great little find that crag, we went public to soon though.
-
Bubba
He had to get a job!

Poor bastard, still it happens to us all !

Adam, it's south facing so prety much all day. And it's only 15 yds from where you park and on a public footpath.

And downt t Birch for a pint of Landlord after, perfect.
-
Mmmmmmm, landlords
(http://www.timothytaylor.co.uk/cards/landlord.jpg)
Proper bo.
-
Do you get Landlords in the Peaks?
-
Not as good as Barnsley Bitter as sold at the Red Lion, Litton - it's the tits.
-
I drink it at the Closed Shop on commonside, which contrary to popular opinion is where all the happening cats in the sheffield scene hang (broadie? thats like so 1995).
-
Best of luck Adam, I hope it's not as warm as yesterday - I reckon the lip traverse is proper winter cool nails - respek if you get it!
In terms of crag X's up that way, maybe a photo later, details soon on yg![/quote]

With all due respect Bubba you fat bastard, there is no way on earth that Barnsley Bitter is as good as Landlord. What would you know about beer anyway ya southern cider shandy drinkin poof :twisted:
Glad thats sorted.
-
Eh, less of southern norton.......more like western welshy if you please
or carrot cruncher as i was once called
ur right about the shandy though
even if me and bubs had 5 bottles of wine twixt two of us last weekend

Yeah, tosser! Oi is a carrot cruncher - ooohaarrr! Cut me teeth on dodgy scrumpy in sawdust floored Hereford puke holes.
I'm standing by the BarnsleyBitter - you've just forgotten what good beer is now you're living in the land of weak pish :wink:
-
In fact, to back me up about the Red Lion's Barnsley - see this topical cartoon
(http://www.hnh.dircon.co.uk/cartoon_titan_small.jpg)
Why topical you ask? Because the Titan surface dig was completed last weekend after 3.5 years of effort and now the largest shaft in the uk is connected to it's surface entrance.
And yeah Fatboy - we sure can shift some alcohol, can't we? :D
