Pam and I have taken over the ‘names and numbers’ aspect of this meet.
The Starkey Hut is possibly the most sought after Lakeland hut in January for good reason: Accessibility; Eastern Fells having the best chance of snow/ice; Something for everyone from high ridges for walking to gullies and ridges for those who want a bit more excitement.
The hut itself is a ‘good-un’; the further delights of Blencathra are not too far away and the marvellous White Lion pub is just up the road.
For various reasons, including ski-ing and rushing off to sunny climes, numbers are currently much reduced for a meet which is usually a sell-out. At present there is a risk that financial viability might not be achieved; so if you do wish to join in pleae let us know, (email to colinpam.foord@tiscali.co.uk preferred,) AND get £25, (full cost for two nights,) into the club account WITHOUT DELAY.
Colin and Pam Foord
