You'd have thought the BMC would have got their Geography in order. How many North Yorkshire crags do they have listed as being in West Yorkshire!

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:

Not a single reply regarding the BMC's poor geography.

I wonder if they can Navigate their way to Almscliff?

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:
Earl crag is often confused to be in West Yorkshire but it's North.

Still basic map reading.

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:

You should thank them for not listing them under Lancashire.

In reply to Offwidth:

Or The Peaks!

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:

It all West of East Yorkshire -can't see your problem

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:

Now you have done it, how long before before Al spots that? On a less serious point than the correct use of the plural you know full well quite a few 'peak' crags are in yorkshire (much more so than thise in the lancashire border skirmishes).

In reply to Offwidth:

Yep there are Peaks crags in Yorkshire, however they are better left in Peaks guides. God put them on the periphery of his own county for a reason.

So I wonder if the BMC are going to put The Cliff back into North Yorkshire, oh wait a minute aren't the BMC a Lancashire set up? (Manchester being a former city of Lancashire, pre '72).It's all a bloody conspiracy!

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:

I heard all grit was going in the Greater Staffordshire guide in the next series.

In reply to Dave Garnett:

If the BMC have owt to do with it that will probably be the case, they probably think Staffordshire is near Aberystwyth.

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:

It's only Yorkshire, get over it!

<Tongue firmly in cheek>

In reply to Bob:

I'm trying to work out whether saying "Peaks" in a geography pedantry thread is:

(a) funny because it's deliberately ironic, or ...

(b) funny because somebody who is pedantic about what is in "North" or "West" Yorkshire doesn't even know or care what a major climbing area that is partly in south Yorkshire (i.e. also in the West Riding) is called

In reply to AlanLittle:

I thought it was purely to wind Al Evans up

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:

Looks like the BMC have got the student on Twitter watch :- Alaska: http://t.co/RoxLB3wI3v

In reply to A Nidderdale boulderer.:

You can't blame them when a massive chunk of North Yorkshire is further west then West Yorkshire
