Heading to the Peak and was wondering what the weather has been like recently and if it's has been or is wet what areas to avoid?

Thinking of:
Doctor's Gate
Cut Gate
Stanage Edge

Any other areas/trails to avoid and advice on all weather routes appreciated.

It's generally fine. Things dry out slowly round here, but then they take a long time to get really damp again. In fact a lot of stuff is climbing better at the moment because it's been damped down a little.

The route through Mam Tor, Jacobs Ladder, Edale Cross, Coldwell Clough, Rushup Edge etc. was great last weekend ... despite the recent rain, the trails were dry & not too dusty ... perfect ๐Ÿ˜€
