We're thinking of heading to the cuttings at Portland on Sunday. Anyone climbed there recently? Are there a few dry routes about? The weather looks fine.

In reply to Matt250: There will be plenty to go at I'm sure. Was there a couple of weeks back after a wet week and there were seepage lines effecting some routes, but still enough dry stuff to keep us busy.

In reply to Matt250: I was down there on Monday and the whole lot was saturated, the only climbable stuff being the Lower Tier and the Bower. The weather has been good the last couple of days and it usually dries fast but we are talking about drying from the sort of conditions that I have never experienced the Cutting being in.

I went to swanage today, boulder ruckle was all dry, except the deep cracks/dank caves and some overhang seepage. All the face climbs were spot on, and T shirt weather. Top outs were fine too.
Good luck with the cuttings, no idea how it is there.
