It's fairly easy :)

Parking at https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/53.85 ... m2!4m1!3e0

The parking is right above the "John" area (https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crag ... oved_arete), the way down is obvious once you're stood above it.

I'll hang around there once I arrive, aiming for 5:30pm. I have an obnoxiously large green "Moon" bouldering mat and will be dressed in approximately 12 layers of clothing.
Thanks, don't hang around - I won't be there until 6:15. I'll use your links and try and find a group of people. Hopefully the weather forecast is wrong because otherwise the rock will be soaked.

Don't worry, it's mainly snow at the moment, rather than rain... :roll: :wink:

It's not 'sticking' and my spies are reporting that the rock dries out very quickly.

It also looks like the showers will die out as the evening progresses, so I reckon we should be ok... ish.

Cheers everyone! We prevailed and it stayed dry (and the rock was dry too). Wasn't even *that* cold... :wink:

High friction, high psyche night, thanks guys!

Great to see everyone and I hope you all thawed out, definitely heard someone mention returning home to a hot chocolate :)

I did indeed return home to a hot chocolate having had my posterior very much handed back to me by Hidden Gem, Lemur C and Leaper Traverse. Standard.
