Hello and Welcome to the Slate Wiki. Again like its sister sites the Gogarth , North Wales Limestone, Welsh Winter Climbs , Tremadog and Trevor Area (Clwyd) Wiki's this site has been set up to provide up to date information on the exsisting routes. Since the evolution of other wiki's it seemed appropriate to offer the same interactive service for the Dinorwig Slate Quarries.

The sort of imformation we are looking for is current state of play on route descriptions, pegs, grades and bolts. Something that since the start of a re-bolting campaign has been very dynamic. Any new information will also help with the forthcoming guidebook that is currently being written by the Ground Up Team.

Mordor and The Lost Worlds

BMC Better Bolts News. This link includes important information on keeping everyone up to date on routes equipped with bolts from this source.

It would seem a good idea to add a comedy graded list to the site, if you have any thoughts on routes that need to be put up or down the list, and where to then it would be extremely helpful if you would use the comments feature to allow some debate before a route is moved.

Another page that would seem important to add is a list of routes that are outstanding, that need re-equipping on the Re-bolting Projects. If you bolt a route then remember to remove it from this list.

Weather: Here's link to Pete's Eat's webcam's, one of which faces the quarries. And Metcheck for Llanberis

Due to the sensitive Access situation at Dali's Hole, the poor quality of our new routes there! + the need for bolts to equip better quality projects elsewhere, Phil T and myself have decided to remove the hangers from: Slip Not, Why Not, Aardman Productions and Le Petit Pois. This will be done at some point over the next few weeks / months. Hope it doesn't upset anyone too much!

Do you find this valuable?
