Log a day on the rock

Say how the rock felt and what you saw, then see what Grip forecast for your hours. Each day logged tests Grip against real rock. About a minute, no account.

This form needs JavaScript.

It keeps Grip’s forecast hidden until you have said how the rock felt and what you saw, and that takes a script. The Google Form asks the same questions, without the forecast.

Thank you. Your day is logged.

Grip checks its forecast against your day within a few hours. It then shows on the crag page and on the Method page.

Your answers first

Grip’s forecast stays hidden until you have chosen a band and said what you saw, so your judgement is your own. You can still change answers afterwards.

Why log

Grip’s weightings are a first estimate. 21 days logged so far; Grip landed in the felt band on 8. What you saw tells Grip which factor it got wrong.

One crag per visit

Climbed two crags? Send one log for each. If a single route stood out, say so in the notes rather than in the score.

Method

Grip forecasts how dry the rock is likely to be. It does not tell you whether a crag, route or sea is safe. Climbing is dangerous: check the rock, the sea and the tide yourself, and climb at your own risk.
