Stoney Middleton..

The last few days have seen frequent showers in the Peak District. Despite this there has been a good breeze for most of the time, resulting in fast drying conditions on the grit.

Simon and I headed to Stoney Middleton today to find some shelter in the bays around the 'Minus Ten Wall'. This area is great in the rain being steep and overhung by trees. It's also a good workout, so definitely worth a visit in showery weather.

Rubicon Wall, Millstone and Lawrencefield are also top spots if you are committed to getting something done. Both the Mountain Weather Information Service (MWIS) and the Met Office are suggesting patches of rain and light showers on Sunday. Fingers crossed though, I'm sure there will be plenty of action on the gritstone and limestone crags this weekend..
