FRCC Joint Meet - Ty Powdyr
Present KMC: Chris Thickett, Iain McCallum, Bob Anderson.
Present FRCC: Ken Jackson, Jill Aldersley, Dave Bodecott, Martin Armitage.
Bob & Chris arrived lunchtime Friday, it was raining. One look at the milestone was enough so we drove on to Little Tryfan. By magic the rain stopped and a pleasant afternoon was enjoyed completing 4 routes on gradually drying rock, practising big boot technique.
Ken, Dave & Martin arrived late Friday to be greeted on Saturday morning by low cloud and steady rain. Dave & Martin went to the climbing wall near Hanrng, where they met Jill. The rest scaled a very wet Elidir Fawr, except Iain who circumnavigated (navigation being the operative nautical term), Llyn Padarn.
Sunday was a great improvement with clear blue skies. Iain went Moel Elia, Dave & Martin to the Pass (Old Holborn) whilst Chris & Bob engaged in more big boot technique on Charity at Idwall.
Not the best of weather but I suppose two days climbing out of three must be deemed good for October 2000.
