Hi all
It’s my meet this Sunday at Curbar Edge. I’ll be at the Calver Wall area of the crag for 10am. There’s a mixture of routes at different grades with options to head in either direction for more many more climbs and a few classics. Parking either at roadside on A625 near GR 256 776 or Curbar Gap car parks either side of GR 260 747. My number is 07813327094 if you need it.
Meet Report
The final outdoor Sunday climb of the season saw Curbar Edge bathed in a low, golden sunlight, overlooking the autumnal yellows and reds in forests below. It was cold start to the day but things soon warmed up (no need for crampons and axes just yet!). A good turn out as 10 members met at Calver Wall and set about climbing all the Severes, Hard Severes and a few Very Severes that the area had to offer. Challenging climbing for the grade; Curbar Edge living up to its reputation for being a difficult crag. Notable routes were: Brindle Crack (HS 4b), Polar Crack (VS 4b), U.F.O. (S 4a), Flying Buttress (S 4a), and Potters Wall (HS 4b). Matt 1 looking confident on lead, newcomer Matt 2 tackling everything that was thrown at him. Another great day!!Simon
