joined the group some weeks ago, and loving the experience!! Had a few people showing interest in doing some rock climbing, top rope, trad and obviously belay. Myself and my partner have been rock climbing for a few years on and off with covid, so was wondering if anyone is interested in a day out on the rocks. If so let us know and perhaps we can organise a day out.

Lockwoods Chimney would be a great climb, which is near llyn gwynant, bit of climbing and a cave like experience with a descent bit exposure at the top, to give you the leg wobbles. Reminds me of lord of the rings type terrain, and finding the crux to the start,  magical at the right time of year.

Let us know

The trees have ears, the hills have eyes. Trust no one... but the sheep.

Hobnail boots for trad climbing.

Luckily they are also quite apt for mine exploring too.

not on this climb ! a decent pair of trail shoes/trainers will do.
