Birmingham received about 5 mm of snow on Thursday night; enough to whet our appetites for a snow-filled weekend...
The Climbers' Club meet's Cumbrian team arrived in Rjukan, the long journey had an adverse effect on everyone's temperament as you can see...
Well, cats seem to be the flavour again. The crags at El Potrero Chico were roamed by feral cats and their kittens, mostly sprawled about in idlness...
Three black cats get the snip...
Sorry, not much of an adventure, this, but a sight so seldom seen as to be worthy of note...
We haven't been on enough adventures recently, so we planned one to North Wales. Friday night saw us test-driving the new Macpac tent in very gusty winds at the top of the Ogwen Valley...
A very good turn out indeed of 26 members from both clubs for this meet in Langdale. But Saturday was totally disgusting as regards weather, with body lifting winds...
After yesterday's efforts our leg muscles were knackered. Well Laetitia's and mine were. Actually if the truth be told, mostly just mine! And as Dave reported almost no aches and pains, it seems that it's true that skiing makes higher demands on the thigh muscles than snowboarding? Anyway, all of this led us to turn to the idea of enjoying some piste skiing to save ourselves from more punishment...
Wind and dogs are the order of the day.
