A small turnout for the club meet this week. Four of us met in the hut at about 9:00, but Ros jumped ship to play in the new kitchen with Fiona.
We packed the rope and headed over to Kingsdale. The weather was more like Leck Fell as we were changing but at least we were walking mainly down wind to the cave.
Matt rigged Little Gulley into Cleft Route. The first rope finished earlier than I expected, but this turned out to be correct when consulting the topo after the trip.
The second rope (a 45m on the topo) was definately short. The new CNCC topo has this as a 60m! So we used the rope for the final pitch for the penultimate pitch.
We had a quick turn around and passed another group between two of the pitches.
The weather was just as bad on the way back to the car & for changing into "dry" clothes.
Team: Matt, Caiti & Dave
Time: About 2 hours
