Ground Up has joined forces with Peak District climbing stalwart, Mark 'Zippy' Pretty to produce a rock climbing supplement: Recent Developments on Peak Limestone.
Activity on the Peak limestone crags continues apace, with numerous new routes being produced by a small but dedicated cohort of activists. There has also been much re-equipping work and rationalising of neglected routes in recent times.
