Please does anyone have a link to a topo or online guide for Wilton (ideally) or Anglezarke? Heading there tomorrow or Friday and was hoping to download them on the Rockfax App only to discover Western grit isn't yet ready for download. Thanks in advance.
I'm afraid I'm working away at the moment otherwise I'd have scanned in the relevant pages for you. However, the new Lancashire Rock from the BMC is a very lovely guide.......
If it's half as good as the two Yorkdhire guides, then it'll be a beauty. Happily, my partner has secured a copy of a Western Grit, so we're off to the quarries, loins girded.
> (If you end up in Anglezarke, racked up below Samarkand (VS 5a), gird your loins, for it is an awkward battle.....)
It's funny, I loved Sanarkand, not at all awkward, just massively fun climbing. Maybe it played to my strengths, I never thought I had any. I need to go back and do it again!
I've done it twice, the first time on lead which felt like a total battle. Even on second it felt awkward and difficult.
I must be turning in to a wall rat.
