I'm thinking of heading to Tremadog next weekend, but it's possible there maybe some rain around.

Just wondering:

- Do the climbs get wet quickly if it rains?
- Does it dry quickly?
- Is it very slippy if wet (I'm used to limestone which is scary if wet)?

If you pick an open route it will dry very quickly but if the bottoms are still damp they are perfectly climbable. It's a good mixed weather venue

I climbed at Tremadog a couple of weeks back in early June the day after it had been lashing it down to the point where the road back up to Capel Curig was totally flooded in many places and fields turned into lakes.

We were on the Grim Wall area of Bwlch y moch and it was virtually dry apart from a little bit of seepage that kindly soaked the crux foothold of Meshach.
