Considering driving in from out of town (4 hours) to climb some easy trad this weekend. Does anyone know if the rock is really wet right now. I know it rained yesterday and there is a chance today and tomorrow. Considering fortress, roadside, global village, possibly jewel pinnacle. Any help would be appreciated.

Dude- if you can't climb where you're at you should drive to the Red

yeah, definitely don't climb those crappy slabby routes like Skunk Love. Only posers and other jerks climb that crap!
(had to get you back)

Climbed yesterday, it hardly rained during the day, but it did during the evening. But I think most routes will have a chance to dry out before the weekend. Some cracks might be wet. Maybe choose a more exposed or south facing crag to maximize your odds of the routes being dry.
