After a very wet fortnight (nearly 200mm in 28 days), Quayfoot has had two dry days (June 14–15) followed by light drizzle today. The south-facing, non-porous BVS rock at this low-altitude crag dries quickly, so the main faces may be dry during the mid-morning to mid-afternoon window today, but high humidity (80%+) and 100% cloud cover will slow surface drying and the tree canopy above may still be dripping. A visual check on arrival is essential.

After a very wet period (nearly 200mm in 28 days), Shepherd's Crag has had two dry days (June 14–15) and a mostly dry morning today, but high humidity, full cloud cover, and light rain returning this afternoon limit drying. The south-facing aspect and non-porous BVS rock mean the main faces may have surface-dried enough for a midday window, but seepage-prone areas and sheltered sections will still be damp.
