Rubicon and the Tor have their own pages, how about one for everything else?
Was down Chee Dale today. Two Tier is still dry despite the recent rain. Long Wall, however, was a waterfall with barely a square inch of dry rock on the whole crag. Anyone know how the Cornice is doing?
-
This evening, Dave's Cave was dry, if slightly greasy.
Beginner's wall was mostly wet, though Neil's wall was mostly dry.
-
This evening the cave was soaked. Never seen it like that before. Presumably related to the muggy weather.
-
Any further updates, Two Tier in particular?
-
Two Tier (Darl area) will probably be fine - it's one of the driest limestone walls in the Peak.
-
Was down Chee Dale today. Cornice is soaking, Two Tier and Embankment dry. A couple of adventurous people were battling with a dirty looking Chee Tor.
-
Thor's Cave today to play on Bonjoy's routes. There are a few damp holds but the great majority of the cave is dry. Thormen's had a couple of wet looking holds so that is probably not climbable yet but the other routes are ready and waiting. Sure more traffic would help get them fully clean and dry so get yourselves down.
-
Tis true, the routes at the back dry quicker than Thormens.
The main thing to watch for in summer is condensation. If there's a breeze it'll be ok, but if there's dew on the ground outside and no wind it's likely to be damp till mid afternoon (much like the right side of the tor).
