Broughton Bluff Winter Climbing

Hey all,

Trying to get some beta on climbing at Broughton Bluff during the rainy season.  I'll be down for Thanksgiving and it's forecasted to be pretty damn nice and dry for a few days straight.  Is it a foolish to think that any of the climbing will be dry even with a long enough dry spell or are there climbs/walls that stay dry even during the worst of downpours?  

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Jungle Wall stays pretty dry. The "Portland Rock Climbs" book says North Face, Red Wall (though I've seen Red Eye seep pretty bad), Bat Wall and Berlin Wall as well. 

Should be worth going out there, especially as there's been time for some seeps to dry up a bit.

Thanks for the info, JP.

I did see that the MP description for Jungle Wall states that it stays dry year round. Just need the sun to shine for an extremely pleasant day out
