Or as an alternative, do an afternoon climb once the rain has gone. From what I’ve read Windgather dries quite well.

Windgather does indeed dry well so def an option to just meet later. The car parks can get busier but worst case is about 1k walk from the bigger car park at Pym chair

Weather wise. XC is showing no rain tomorrow. BBC, Met Office and MWIS are showing rain that clears early afternoon. Choices are: Wait till the afternoon and hope it dries. Go to the nearest indoor wall, Awesome Walls?, see what the weathers like. If raining climb indoors, if dry go to the rocks. If raining and it clears and looks to be drying see if we have the time to get to the crag. |

Hello all. Sorry been out on bike. Meteoblue and XC say dry. I’m intending to start heading north once we finish tomorrow so can’t do Sunday (although I could sleep in the van and delay return home in theory). I’m happy with later start or indoor meet. How far is everyone travelling? How late can we decide? |

We are coming from Coventry, so about a 2 hour drive.
