High on the wonderful Laveredo Wall We were very tired after a bad nights sleep due to three snorers in Ynws Ettws’ bunk room and a little too much wine! So after a hearty Pete Eats breakfast in Llanberis we decided a nice easy day was called for. The venue, Carreg Altrem, has some wonderful …
Laetitia & Vikki, with Mick Fowler & George Band behind The Welsh dinner was preceded by an EGM regarding the proposed new Lakes hut – check out the CC web site for more details on that. Next was the now annual slide competition. We’d entered a few pictures again this year, but there was no …
We drove from Cumbria to North Wales as early as we could manage Saturday morning to get at least one good route in before the Climbers Club’s Welsh dinner. The sun was fully out and there was no wind – a glorious day – so we headed over to South Stack on Anglesey. After following …
Since last weeks disappointment we had found out from the land owner that in the week before our previous dive attempt a farmer further up the valley had sprayed the bracken in his fields.

But today, expecting good weather we headed to Wen Zawn to try something …
Dave & Fiona on the walk from Ogwen to Craig Yr Ysfa Sunday’s weather wasn’t quite as sunny as forecast, but that wasn’t gonna get in the way of our planned adventure up to Craig Yr Ysfa to show Dave & Fiona up the awesome mountaineering classic – Amphitheatre Buttress… We started late, so we …
The joint CC, FRCC bank holiday meet at Ynys Ettws was a great social event. But sadly only two FRCC members (who are also CC members) turned up. A good job the CC made a better contribution 😉 … We enjoyed Saturday at Carreg Wastad, just opposite the hut, allowing a rapid descent to ply …
After enough good weather in the Hepste valley in South Wales Andy and Colin thought Tucks Rift might be in condition. This is a long term project that has resulted in us finding about 100 m of previously unexplored passage and one aven with an impassable surface connection. At the end of this passage there …
