Adders are frequently seen around Curbar. They are often very well camoflaged so it's worth keeping an eye out when moving into new areas, picking up kit etc as a bite, although not life threatening to most healthy adults can still be nasty.

Ticks are abundant due to a large population of red deer. take care, particularly if passing through bracken below the crag.

βeta: Doing this in approach shoes might feel great for your ego but you’ll have dirt and scrittle on your shoes which will damage the rock.

βeta: If you're bringing up seconds and don't fancy a one-peice anchor consiting soley of a sling round a suspect chockstone, you will need some big gear (silver cam size)
