Baildon Bank 9th August

Post by Lindsay M »

This week's climbing meet sees us heading the the infamous Baildon w.... Bank, and I'm afraid it's a Lindsay double bill this week with both weekend and weekday meets. Sorry.

From UKC: "Baildon Bank, loved and hated by generations of climbers in equal measure, is a 'hard' sandstone quarried crag with occasional capping blocks of non-quarried gritstone. A wry sense of humour is a must for climbers partaking of its many delights". If that doesn't sell it, I just don't know what will frankly.

I'll be there about 6, probably to be found in the Epitaph area, but there are usually quite a few around Conch and Joanna as well

Parking: There are several places to park along Green Rd https://goo.gl/maps/D5M8v6HgZHz4MH5LA
Guidebook: Yorkshire Grit Vol 2 https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/book ... vol_2-1481
Pub: We normally pop to the Bull's Head after for a debrief - there is a car park just off the roundabout near the pub
