In reply to lancsmike:
It was sheer coincedence that St Helens had arranged to do a cleanup at Pex, but good to see likeminded people up to cleaning the area up.
We had 4 adults from SHMC and some of our kids to do some work which just complemented was was being done on cleaning some of the lines.
By the end, we'd amassed 5 bags of sh*te, the top outs of Pisa wall and Dateline wall now feature less gorse.
After talking to the guys cleaning dateline routes, I shifted to blitz the overgrowth on top of Pisa...all cut back to fence and I managed to get to the precarious corner..which is far less precarious now.
I returned again today, with intent to climb, but took another bag and a brush and cleaned up a large portion of glass around the centre of the quarry (around the rocky middle).
Next time I visit, I might take my shears and tackle the foliage across the top of dateline.
There are some pictures before/after on the St Helens MC facebook page.
