The list seems to be in a protected google doc?

I remember seeing last years list with comments after the "revival" anyone know where I could find that as well?

Yup, doesn't work for me either.

I emailed them yesterday, also requested access via google docs, but no reply and it still doesn't work
In reply to Simon Caldwell:

I'll send them a quick message now, I know last time I spoke to them they were still in the process of confirming a list.

That said, there might be a slight delay as I know that the member of staff in charge of the Revival (Katy Whittaker) is currently out in Rodellar. I am sure that she'll post an update as soon as she can, alongside an update on how those overhanging tufa hidden caves are going to help her get up overgrown Lakeland E4s
In reply to Rob Greenwood - UKC:

Just had word back from Katy/Arc'teryx.

Apparently the deadline for the list of routes was 18th May, but they haven't yet heard back from all of the individuals/shops involved - hence the delay. After they've received this information it's got to go for one final check over at the BMC to get the official stamp, after that it'll be up/running.

Apologies for the delay!

Class. Keen to see what form this takes. Was planning spending most of the summer in the lakes.

In reply to jseedy12:

The route list is now there.

Surprised to see Kestrel Wall on the list, it used to be relatively popular. Likewise Sadgill Wall.

And Inferno is included, even though we climbed it on last year's list. Maybe the quality of our cleaning wasn't up to scratch!

In reply to Simon Caldwell:

I did Kestrel Wall last summer, perfectly clean then so likewise I'm not sure why this route is on the list.

In reply to Simon Caldwell:

Yeah, some strange choices on that list. Good luck to anyone trying to clean up White Gill Chimney or Intermediate Gully - or indeed, Fallen Angel!

Conversely, stuff like Cascade and Nimrod are pretty much always clean where it matters - they really don't need cleaning up prior to an ascent. It would have been good to see other routes on Pavey East Wall like Mother Courage highlighted, or the routes on Great End Crag instead.

Just spotted that, here's a link for those that haven't found it already: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1n-w6ARA5oDymyzy5KZ15u6rgut8aZ7vZgKa...

I climbed nimrod last weekend and it was immaculate!

Should've waited a week and bagged a free T-shirt!

In reply to Rob Greenwood - UKC:

Anyone know where the list from last year went? Would be good to do some...
In reply to scott quinn:
That's a valid point actually, be nice to know which routes are (or at least were) clean.

Here's a link to last year's list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1evBNUb0wuJ1Z6pdKZjI3TnxUcjv_lvnVC8Y...

Thanks Rob!!!

Looking at last years list, quite a lot of routes didnt get ticked and couldhave been left on the list for this year as they are probably even dirtier!
 JR 01 Jun 2015
In reply to Rob Greenwood - UKC:

Rob - can someone make this as a ticklist on UKC (and perhaps add previous years too?) and keep it updated on there rather than using a google doc - then all the photos are in one place and an icon could be added to the climb if it's been done by anyone between a certain set of dates?
In reply to John Roberts (JR):

Hi John,

I'll be speaking to Katy @ Arc'teryx about this later today, will keep you updated with progress. The logbooks/ticklists/photo galleries would certainly be the most ideal way of bringing it all together, we'll see what we can do.

In reply to Rob Greenwood - UKC:

Nice one Rob.
 ctodd 03 Jun 2015
In reply to Pagan:

totally agree.

pretty average list i thought - nimrod, flat iron wall, fallen angel - all clean last year.

maybe a new list should be started on here?!

In reply to Rob Greenwood - UKC:

Hi Rob, did anything come of this?

In reply to John Roberts (JR):

I've taken the law into my own hands and uploaded it myself, there's a few omissions but I'll aim to get these added over the next few days - here's a link http://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/set.php?id=1133

Might head up there the weekend of the 4-5th July if you're interested?
