| A must buy |
I met Adi at Rokt on Monday afternoon and our girls went on a send fest in pursuit of Jelly babies and Cola Bottles. Rose and Lilly did a good amount of climbing, Rose an even great amount of moaning. Adi had generously brought along a copy of the new Yorkshire Grit Vol. 2 Guide for my small contributions with Woodhouse and a couple of other areas. I might be biased, but I think it is even better than the first volume. This volume covered the areas of Yorkshire that are much less frequented. Whilst everyone is revelling in the polish at Almscliff, those of us in West Yorkshire have a guide to show the best the area has to offer. Once past the polish of Ilkley, you enter into the area of rough grit of Barden Moor. A little further West takes you to the Dark difficult world of Earl Crag etc. Continue you journey further South and you hit the Widdop and Calderdale area. With much more documented to go at, even the most dedicated local has something new. I personally am really pleased with area. This guide has re ignited my enthusiasm for my local area. crags I had ticked in the old guide suddenly give me reasons to return. Matt and Neil have really done a great job, Thanks guys. The Woodhouse and Kirklees section is another area that will offer a great deal to the West Yorkshire/Calderdale local. There are areas I didn't even know existed, all within a 30 min drive. Add to all this the Shipley and Baildon section, and you another climbing to last you a lifetime.

This is a guide that would be worth every penny. You can pick your copy up from Outside, the Leeds wall and other retailers.
