Restricted Access
Wilton 2 and 4 are owned by Bolton Rifle & Pistol Club with agreed times for shooting and climbing - live firing takes place and it is vital that climbers understand and stick to the access arrangements.
In W2 and 4, climbers have priority on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. On days when shooters have priority (and the red warning flags are not in place), climbers can access the quarries for climbing, but they should leave at the shooters request. Please try to avoid the temptation of assuming that the ranges are not being used until at least mid-afternoon. On days when climbers have priority, the shooters can use the sites if climbers are not present when they arrive. However, if climbers arrive, shooting must cease. Please allow them a reasonable time to clear up.

βeta: In Rockfax Western Grit book 2009, the topo/ line of Kung Fu has been incorrectly drawn over where Median Crack actually is. Kung Fu is actually the line with groove/ sentry box immediately right of Shukokia. Lancashire Rock book has it correct | βeta? | |
