Ogmore

There is a comprehensive topo of the areas on swbouldering website.

WARNING (Ogmore Bouldering - Hardys Bay): There appears to have been a new rockfall. In particular, the rock on the west wall of Area 4 seems very unstable, and there are two noticeable blocks that have come off the end arete and from underneath the little cave. These have changed the routes considerably, and the rock scars are in themselves particularly friable. A massive block has also come out the back of area 3 to the right of problem 8. Take care if you venture down there!
