A few more ideas for trips


Long autumn weekends Glen Nevis/peak/lakes/reiff
When the midges are gone and the Indian summer arrives we need to get a few decent weekends sorted!

Bothy Trip for first snow

First white stuff hits the ground lets go play in it, glen feshie was good last time. Bit of whisky in front of an open fire and a wee bit of winter nav would do us all good.

Mountain routes
There’s still time...

A2 sessions

Boo its time, the fatness/weakness needs to be destroyed by the a2, any one up for a regular session again, I’m going to try and get 2 a week from sometime soon!

CIC Hut mid week – next spring/summer

Had this idea for a while reckon we could prob get a few places in the CIC mid week off peak. Would be great to do some more stuff on the ben as I’ve only done 1 rock route!

Torridon Winter
Calum's uncle has a cottage in kinlochewe that we got last year for 4 days, could prob fit about 6 folk. I really fancy the Liathach traverse, a big route on Beinn Eighe and a few more munro rounds. Will try and confirm with himself when he get back from the alps.

Lofoten next year
Got the book last year and really cyked. Reckon it would be a great trip for everyone, with big mountain trad, craging, sport climbing and bouldering. Need to research it a bit more but a week next year some time would do the job I reckon.

Alps next year
Has to be done can’t believe it wasn’t! If I can’t take the time off I will quite ma job!!!!

taking the 'trad quiz' on facebook the day i realised that we are all punters (except Tim, whose evil ways we must pray for redemption!), yet our very own krac has been silent for too long. everyone seems to have gone there separate ways and this should surely be remedied come the autumn!

my thesis is nearly done and im psyked for some action, so lets hope the weather improves and we can get out to play. i have some plans, if anyone is out there let me know what you think and when anyone has time!

long weekend north wales/peak
walk from braemar to fort william in october over all munroes in between (5nights bothy/bivy)
sneaky mountain route in the sept sunshine
play in the first white stuff (cant be long now, feckin freezin up here!)


let me know folks!
