Jim and Sean’s Trip to the Peak (Harborough Rocks) – October 2015

This was primarily a trip for the families with children and Harborough Rocks delivered. Friday night saw the introduction of a new sport (an indoor sought of surfing, but you really had to be there to see it), which was basically adults imitating children. Anyway, Ilam Hall was a good venue.

Saturday saw many ascents at Harborough Rocks, including a fair amount of bouldering and some hill walking, so quite a mix. Everyone made it to the pub afterwards.

Sunday saw an ascent of Thorpe Cloud, which served as a good viewpoint for the Dovedale Dash…

Food and wine was great and thank you to all involved… It was great to catch up and the fact that children were climbing for several hours highlighted the success of the day. All of them Club Presidents in the making (thinking the long game…).
