We finally found some ice!
This weekend was the annual Kendal Mountain Festivals event in Kendal (obviously).
In 1997 I was lucky enough to attend the CC centenary in North Wales, I'd only been a member of the CC for less than two years at that time, but it was an amazing experience! I resolved straight away to become a member of the FRCC before their centenary in 2006.
Wow! Mid-summer weather in October. Ian, Anna, Pete, Laetitia, Terry and Vicky took the opportunity to find a south facing crag close to the road.
A few of us have just got back from Kalymnos, where we had a week's climbing and numerous dough-balls.
The weather turned out dry today - very different to the rain we thought had been forecast!
The CC Welsh (Founders) Dinner was held at a new venue this year.
We wanted to go somewhere new today. So we settled for a trip to the granite outcrops of Eskdale. First on the hit list was Bell Stand.
We hoped for more of the amazing weather today, but alas, just as we turned into the Duddon Valley it started to rain. But there was no way that we weren't going to climb after the long drive to get there!
