Unsettled Weather in the Peak District..

The weather has been a little unsettled in the Peak District today with a low cloud base over the northern moors. This has made for a damp feel combined with the rain showers!

Darren has been out climbing today at Froggatt Edge, on a Lead Climbing course with Cameron and Lisa. Froggatt is a good choice in variable conditions as it is often clear of cloud, unlike more exposed venues. This combined with some of the fastest drying gritstone slabs, nearly always ensures that you can get something done. Darren also took the opportunity to cover many of the essential skills required for lead climbing, including gear placement for belays and runners.

The weather forecast appears to be better for Sunday with light showers, although there is a possibility of high winds..
