Kinsman was still hanging in there yesterday.  Left side of main area pretty good.  Beast did not look that well but flow to the left still good. 
Headed to Rumney in the afternoon and conditions were great.

I'm looking for some rock trad climbing next week-end (6-7 april) and I would like advices on the best bets to start the season... anything dry ready to go ?

should I go more south or Rumney should be fine ? Where is the best southfacing wall ?

If you know something dry where I can slowly work my way from 5.5 to 5.10, please give routes names and locations.

If you think I would be better to go Ice climbing, let me know and I guess I'll change my plans

Rumney has been pretty dry lately. Upper Vader wall, Jimmy Cliff (Left Side), and Crow's nest are a great outing for routes 5.5 and up. Clip a dee doo dah is a great 2 pitch bolted slab for 5.3. Also PWay dried up quick on the walls.
The Dome has some great moderate trad lines and the lower left wall (Below The Dome) has some great cracks as well. 5.6 - 5.8 and they are south facing/ dry. Parking at the Horse Farm though.
I can not vouch for anything up north..last I heard was spotty and seeping on the moderates. Enjoy.

Are the flies out yet?
Is there still seepage from the top at Orange Crush?  Which routes are still wet?
Thanks!

I haven't been to Rumney in a couple of weeks, but I do know the flies are out in the Ossipee area.  Started showing up here last weekend and started biting a day or two ago.  Definitely were bothersome this morning on the job site in Dover.  If they aren't out at Rumney now, they soon will be I'm sure!

YUCK....

not biting up here in the Whites yet, but I'm sure we're not far off...

A few blackflies at Rumney today and they are biting!
Expect nuisance for the next three weeks or so.
