I know there was an accident a little while ago.

Does anyone know if they are back and how many of them there are covering how many routes?

Regards
Joe

In reply to FreeloaderJoe: nope, top ropes on those routes at the moment and no indication when they will be back

er, not been in a couple of months, but 2x autobelays had made an appearance since 'that' accident. Unless there was another one I know nothing about.

In reply to FreeloaderJoe: I was there last Friday and a friend told me that there may have been a recent problem with one of the devices getting stuck when lowering. I don't have any details so apologies if this is wrong.

I was there last Tuesday when the 2 current ones were getting taken down. One of them had jammed quite near the top, don't think there'd been a big accident.

No Idea when they'll be back.
