I am preparing the next CC "Baggy and the Culm Coast" guide, and am planning to have the draft ready by the end of autumn with a view to publication in spring of next year (dangerous to give dates I know, but...). With this in mind, I'd like your help!
1. Information - I need to know of any new routes or routes that have fallen down, the easiest way to do this is to report them in the logbook system here. New routes need a good description, relating them to existing routes and ideally a line on a phototopo.
2.Bouldering - I'm not a boulderer, but we intend to include a selection of problems in the guide (we cannot hope to be definitive!). To that end I'd like feedback on problem grades and quality (how many stars?) again, the logbook system is well suited to this. The obvious areas to be covered are Hartland Quay and Maer Cliff (aka Northcott Mouth), but if there are quality problems elsewhere that really should not be left out, please let me know.
3. Action Photos - we will need good quality high res photos - the more we have to choose from the better! Again, the best way to do this is via this site - upload your photos with a link to the crag. We will search through the galleries and contact you for permission and a high res version if we'd like to use one of your images (no payment, but a copy of the guide).
4. Checking - I now have draft versions of the script and topos for many of the cliffs, if you'd like to check one, please contact me.
Many thanks (I will bump this thread from time to time over the next few months).
