Was up at Horseshoe yesterday and feel that some folk need to get their act together re. the parking... I know people are desperate to get out but some folk are just taking the piss!
FYI:
There's parking for aproximately 12 cars (if there are vans then this will of course be less)... There's a turning circle at the end which should be kept clear - both sides... Be considerate and ensure there's enough space so cars can get through - the gap closes towards the turning circle... If it's crowded then there are 3 lay-bys further up the road - I know the walk isn't nice so if it's rammed drop your stuff and partner off first so only one of you need do the walk (especially important for those with kids I guess!)....
Yesterday was terrible and I'm surprised that there wasn't someone wandering around asking people to move cars so they could get out - one Micra was completely blocking access to the turning circle, a transporter was parked on the RHS of the turning circle and another car was on the LHS leaving only one car's width to turn - not cool!... I don't think it's right to get into naming and shaming but FFS if you're going to climb at Horseshoe please be a bit considerate...
Sorry for the rant but Horseshoe's a great resource and just because much of it's owned by the BMC doesn't mean that you can just forgoe the considerations that you'd have at crags with more problematic access issues!
