Crookrise Development
February 21, 2021
There has been re-awakened interest in the previously seldom visited but excellent boulders in the Everest/Khumbu Sectors where good rock and strong lines have provided local climbers Dave Sutcliffe and Neil McCallum with some rewarding FAs.

As a New Year present we’ve updated the Ilkley High Crag Topo. We’ve been meaning to do this for a while as its a good little venue and can be combined with other nearby locations. It is mostly north facing so does need a few dry days. Ilkley High Crag Dec 2020
