Doves Nest Crags, Combe Gill Tuesday 27 May 2025

[Jane Ligema]

Hi everyone,

The weather for this Tuesday’s is at Dove’s Nest , Combe Ghyll doesn’t look promising at present. I will be reviewing on Monday afternoon/ evening.

The meet is intended to be at Dove’s Nest Combe Ghyll, Borrowdale, a crag high up on the west facing side of Combe Ghyll.

Parking is along the minor road towards Thorneythwaithe Farm on the right hand side. I think there was an honesty box last time I was there. NY 25022 13560

There are deep passages and unusual climbs on excellent rock, ranging from a D , VD ** to harder climbs of MVS ** upwards of around four pitches.
,
If it doesn’t go ahead on Tuesday, we will try for Thursday.

I will aim to be at the crag around 4pm, if anyone wants a lift from Keswick around 3.15 please let me know.

If you intend to come please message me via WhatsApp, janeligema@hotmail.co.uk, or 07780 750290

Will be in touch

Jane
