Has anyone been up to woodwell recently?
Or is it completely the wrong time of year to climb there?
Thanks

It was pretty dry a week back, but it's rained a lot since.

Was thinking of going up Saturday but with a bit of rain forecast for Wed and Thurs with friday and saturday dry do you reckon it'd be a bit of a long shot?
I know I could just risk it (and stop asking stupid questions) but it's an hours drive away so I'd prefer to have a vague idea before settin goff!

The way the weather is at the moment I would expect Woodwell to be damp, but if you get a drying day before you go other places may be OK (Trowbarrow/ Warton/ Farleton).

Trowbarrow and Woodwell are pretty good, although don't expect to top out on Vitruvian Man.
Obviously as soon as the temp rises everything will be totally soaking. Make the most of the lack of dampness before that happens!

Was there today and it was all dry
. Very little snow about so access is fine. Bloody cold when the sun went down though.

Has anyone been down recently? Going to be in Lancaster over the weekend so planning to head here.
Failing that, does anyone have other suggestions for dry rock if the forecast is accurate?
Cheers

It was fine last saturday with everything dry. With the ground being so dry i would imagine that it won't be seeping yet (i may however be wrong!)

Am probably going to be in the area tomorrow (Saturday). What are the chances like of any of it being remotely dry?

Dry and pretty much seepage free last Wed, although it has rained since. Left hold on AOSD has been broken, as was an edge on Il Pirata.

Any idea what this has done to the problems in terms of difficulty. Having literally just moved to Lancaster was keen to have a crack on this!

Apparently no change in difficulty but it's now a nicer (i.e. less painful) hold to hold. Although that's third or fourth hand information so...
