Sunday 4th Dec
19.00 after the AGM
Rebecca Coles is one of the leaders of Project Alpine Spirit, a mountaineering team hoping to become the first all-female team to climb the 82 4000m peaks in the Alps. She has also climbed first ascents in the Greater Ranges and South Georgia, Antarctica.
Sue’s Winter Walk – Sunday 4 December
Bearing in mind we need to be at the AGM well before 16.30, I’ve found us a local walk.
Cown Edge and Whitely Nab from Chunal is 6.5 miles with 350 m of ascent. It’ll probably be boggy but hopefully clear so we can get some good views. Meet at 10 for 10.30 at the car park on A624 between Hayfield and Glossop (034907).
In addition to butties, I will be bringing dry and mud free spare clothes so I can go straight from the walk to the AGM, have dinner and listen to the fantastic talk.
See you all there.

XMAS CURRY WEEKEND – 9 & 10 DECEMBER
HILL TOP BUNKHOUSE, MALHAM
There are still a few places left on our favourite early December meet.
We are returning to the excellent Hill Top Bunkhouse in Malham. After a great day walking, riding or chilly climbing, we will put on our Xmas party hats and tuck into a takeaway curry from the highly rated Bollywood Cottage.
The accommodation will cost £38 pp for the weekend, including a free extra Sunday night extension. Please transfer the money to the Mynydd account with Malham as your reference and message me to say you are coming. I will set up a separate Whats App group to organise the food booking and payment (likely to be £18pp). Please note that only two dogs are allowed and both those places are taken.
Looking forward to it as ever. Sue

Thursday 12th Jan – Sun 15th Jan 2023
After last year’s Covid induced mass exodus, hopefully this year will be a little plainer sailing! We’re staying at the K Fellfarers ‘High House’ hut in Seathwaite – to find it simply stick ‘High House – Club Hut’ into your newfangled interweb widget or locate NY235119 if you’re in the old skool posse.
Pillows and tea towels aren’t provided so bring both. Dogs (or pets in general – maybe bring a frog, or a bat…) are allowed in the common room but must sleep in your vehicle. I’ll send out some more information to attendees nearer the time and see if there’s any appetite for a communal cook-up or such.
There’s lots of great walking straight from the hut and if winter conditions are favourable then climbing to be had up on Great Gable, Green Gable and Great End. Low level cragging in Borrowdale might be possible if there’s a settled spell and if the weather is totally minging then there are plenty of cafes in Keswick.
To book, simply pay £21.50 into the club account and send me an email (see members area) to let me know you’re coming. Remember that this is your hut payment, not a deposit, and a refund can only be guaranteed if you sell your spot!

WINTER BIVVY MEET – Sat 28th Jan
This meet will no longer be going ahead.
Graham stepped up to make sure the meet went ahead but with no on putting there hands up wanting to join in then unfortunately we’re pulling the plug.
‐–‐—————————————
Huge Kudos to Graham for stepping up on this one!!
Details from the main man himself are below with a healthy dose of flexibility! Plans will firm up depending on who and how many people are keen to join him! Please comment below and I’ll make sure the message get to him 🙂

How to sell shivering the night away in a damp sleeping bag?
Dan says can I put together a brief outline times Etc.
This all sounds like structured organisation itineraries venues most frightening of all times!
So let’s try Saturday night out on the hill Sunday morning beautiful and clear? be nice to do some climbing.
However if Saturday is a good day and Sunday wet, better to start early on Saturday current forecast is fair for both days.
I can make 1pm at Laddow on Saturday to climb and can stay the on Sunday,
If it was too wet for any climbing, Laddow is a good place to start a walk in four counties.
I will walk in from Greenfield, Chew. Crowden is shorter walk in both have parking
I am easy and will spend time climbing or take a longer rout from & to Greenfield
one positive of a Laddow bivvy is no lights in view [home moss tv mast] so a promise of the milkyway, or cloud or both. before the morning

Film Screening & Q&A
The Last Forgotten Art
With Jessie Leong, Vicky Walsh & Steve Rayner
19.00 start
Is crack climbing the Last Forgotten Art? From hand-sized splitters, chicken wings to whole body wriggles, ‘The Last Forgotten Art’ follows crack aficionados Mel, Vicky and Steve in their pursuit of slightly more unusual ‘off-width climbs’ found in the Peak District. The film, which won the People’s Choice Award at Kendal Film Festival, places emphasis on a different style of climbing that requires a certain amount of creativity to climb them, focusing on the fringes of the climbing community drawn to all things wide at its heart.
Meet Organiser: Alice Gioia
Depart from Longnor at 10.00am. Walk will go via Earl Sterndale, Parkhouse, Chrome hill, Hollins hill and Hollinsclough. About 13 km.
There is the option to shorten it or start later by parking in Earl Sterndale (limited parking) and joining us around 10.45-11.00am. Text me if you are doing this. There will be MUD !
