Howdy,
Cave Cliff can be climbed in the pissing rain (we set up Gotham City while a huge downpour was going
on and it was totally dry, all the way to the anchors!)
The Sun Gate is steeper than The Sun Deck and hence a better bet.
The Sun Deck is pretty good though - as long as the rain is not super doopa heavy (last weekend it
hosed it down on Friday night, and showered on and off on Saturday and it was fine to climb there all
day). Like Wendy said, the top holds can be wet but are big enough to hang onto to clip the chains.
VD land I don't think is much good in the rain even though the routes there are great.
The Gallery is ok ish, but Weaveworld gets saturated from about half way up so is not idea. The big
jug crux dyno thing on Chain of fools (23) gets like a big wet pool of mushy chalk, and does not inspire
ideal performance / onsights / enjoyment of this route.
What about the pub? |
