BMC International Meet

The prospect of being a host at the 2006 BMC International meet at Plas y Brenin, North Wales, was a daunting one! All those super hard climbers from all over the world… What had I let myself in for?

In fact it was a great week. I was paired up with a newly qualified German guide (Max) at first and then with a Manchester based (an impostor?) Czech (Jarek) for the second half. Nice guys and well up for climbing in Wales courtesy of the BMC.

Almost every aspect of North Wales (slate to Cloggy, Llanberis Pass to Gogarth, Llyn Peninsula to Tremadog) seemed to be taken by storm. These guys are all amazing climbers, some at the top of the game and some taking their first steps leading.
I think everyone had fun, I certainly did, not withstanding notable events like the Lithuanian “near death” ground fall from an E5 at Rhoscolyn…
