Just for information, with the support of the BMC better bolts campaign, the last of its type, I have regeared a large number of the routes and belays on The Dark Side and The Sanctuary at Harpur Hill.

I would like to regear a number of other routes across the Peak and if you would like to support me in this you can donate funds at http://sportsclimbs.co.uk

As you may be aware all of the regearing is a costly and time-consuming business. All donations are greatly appreciated and just a fiver pays for a couple of bolts. I have problem putting the time and effort in.

Climbed there today - The Dark Side, Lower Tier. Could do with a bit of regearing there! I'll put a tenner in the fund. It's "Harpur" by the way.

Thanks for correcting my 'typo. My school reports always said 'must do better'. Thanks for the offer of support.

Donation made. If you ever need a hand I live about 10 minutes walk from the quarry. Never placed a bolt in my life, though.

Probably a winter project, starting with the beats.

Another typo. I hate predictive stuff. I meant belays!

Another typo?

I always had a long school report!

Of course, I have no problem putting the time in.

Thanks Alex. I have £70 in donations. If I get around another £80, that should be enough for the Long Wall and Racetrack belay renewal.

Thanks for all the work you've put in

Donation made Gary. It was only fair, I ripped the jug off the top of 4000 last year, and nearly killed your friend Dennis who was belaying me. :S

It hasn't changed the route any. Thanks for the dosh.

In reply to Gary Gibson:

Hi all, I think I have raised enough to renew all of the belays on Harpur Hill Long Wall. It would be great to raise the same amount to renew all the bolt runners.

Donated

Took a big fall here, so I was glad it was on a good bolt

Keep up the good work,
Gary
