bo

we're on a N-NW wind in the peak according to metcheck.com, so you wanna be pimping somewhere like burbage south, gardoms north boulders, stanage far north, probably some of the stride, over owler tor,  and all the limestone if dry. Basically anywhere that will catch the wind will be ok. Simply really, wind=ok, no wind=midge death.

sorry dave you must have posted just before me.  Thanks for the info.  Do you know where trellis(sp) is at B.South.  Will that be in the wind.
Cheers

trellis is the wall oposite silent spring in the very first quarry you get to (should be able to recognize wizard ridge above it from hard grit). Trellis is only about V6 so don't get excited about the "V9" grade. might be in the wind yeah.

Best bet will be the far end of the crag, like midget gem etc. like way past parthian shot by a 100 yards etc. Enjoy, i'm off home now.
