After 2.2mm of rain on April 12 (mostly in the early hours) and a full dry day since, surface limestone at Angel Bay may be approaching climbable condition, but the north-facing aspect, recent intermittent wet spells, and moderate humidity mean pockets and seepage lines could still be damp. Climbers should visually and physically assess the rock before committing.
