I was up there on Friday. A big group turned up over at the righthand end and basically had climbers on all the good sport so we headed over to check out the few Trad climbs.
Ive notices a few new scars on some of the sport climbs with more breaking off in the past fortnight.
I headed up "Don't the moon look good, mama" and removed a bit of loose stuff. Worth the climb that route. Another two climbed modest mouth that goes to the same anchor. We got rid of a lot of loose stuff off the top of the two but there is still plenty there.

Seemed to be hearing "Rock" every minute or so.

For the traffic the palce has been getting and a lot of newer climbers going there it will probably help a great deal.
