Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

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?
