Having moved house 3 times over the last 12 months and also having the delight of watching our little son grow up over the last year I haven’t had a great deal of spare time for climbing!  However, I have been keeping my hand in and every now and again manage a day in the Lakes which has become very handy since our move to Ingleton as has the Inglesport Climbing Wall. 

At one time when I was hut manager Ty Powdwr was like a home from home and so I am really excited to be finally able to find a weekend to head back down there.  It would be lovely to see the hut nice and full so after soirees in the Alps are over I hope many will be looking to reacquaint themselves with a bit of Welsh rock.  I’m quite keen on having a go at the classic mountaineering route of Ampitheatre Buttress which I’ve never done so if anyone is up for a classic bit of rock let me know.  I’m sure everyone will come armed with their own plans and hopefully it will be another memorable weekend at the club’s hut.
