SUMMARY:Return to the Jotunhiemen: Dirtbag Trip II 2022
DESCRIPTION:Join Jim and Andrew for another Norwegian adventure to the Jotunhiemen (postponed from last year). Glaciers\, trad rock routes up massive rock\, alpine summits and really expensive weak beers\, back at the hut\, epic driving across wide open spaces\, getting washed in the sink at the petrol station\, sleeping at the airport… something for everyone. \n  \nJoin Jim and Andrew for another Norwegian adventure to the Jotunhiemen. Aim to arrive at Guardemoen Oslo airport August… Dates to be confirmed. Pick up the car and drive up to the Juvasshytte in the Jotunhiemen. Spend 4 nights in the hut and tick off some multi-pitch rock\, glacier trips\, and maybe some summit hill walks. \nThen plans are flexible but generally head back south and get some more trad or local sport climbing in before reaching the airport and staying overnight before returning. \nFor those wishing to attend this trip as a first alpine experience\, then the ascent of Galdhopiggen is a very easy and safe glacier approach and the summit is the highest in Northern Europe. If you are new to glacier travel\, then please check with Jim very early on\, so that you can practice and perfect your skills before the trip. You will need additional equipment including crampons but Jim can lend you an ice axe. \n  \nServices: \nThe airport has reasonable supplies\, as do shops on the road up to the Jotunhiemen and the hut. Beware\, prices aren’t cheap! \n  \nAccommodation: Find it here \nWild camping also available\, 500m away from the hut. \n  \nFood: \nEither bring your own or rely on the hut… or a bit of both. \n  \nTransport: \nJim and Andrew flying to and from Guardemoen Oslo airport… be aware that three airports serve Oslo and the other two are a few hours south. British Airways flies from LHR to OSL. \nCars are the new eco option… You will need to factor in car transport. There may be room in other cars but please check first. \n  \nDates: Thursday 18th August 2022 – Thursday 25th August 2022. \n  \nOrganisers: \nJim McCall and Andrew Martin.

I will cook evening meals on the BBQ and there is always something for breakfast. Bring your own lunches and alcohol.

Bristol by bus or train and then local buses out to West Harptree available. Get in touch with Jim if you need pick up.

SUMMARY:Scottish Sea Cliffs and the Great North West
DESCRIPTION:Dates: 28.05.2022/29.05.2022 to 04.06.2022/05.06.2022…  \nEveryone will be there for a while but there is flexibility in everyone’s calendar so chat to your climbing partner first… \n  \nHi all\, join me for an amazing journey exploring Scottish rock on the western sea-cliffs of the north-west highlands! There’s a huge amount of rock here with routes of all grades from single to multi-pitch – bouldering too – and Jim says it’s great! \nHi all\, join me for an amazing journey exploring Scottish rock on the western sea-cliffs of the north-west highlands! There’s a huge amount of rock here with routes of all grades from single to multi-pitch – bouldering too – and Jim says it’s great! \nWe’ll be focussed on Reiff\, north-west of Ullapool (Coigach & Assynt)\, but there’s a variety of places to visit. For those that prefer scrambling or walking\, Stac Pollaidh is about 20-30 minutes’ drive away\, Suilven\, Canisp\, and Ben More Assynt are within an hour’s drive\, there are many other mountains in this broader area. And then\, of course\, there’s the Old Man of Stoer about 90 minutes’ away… I’m contemplating going for a full week in May/June 2022 (to avoid midges\, especially on the coast!) but people could do a long weekend\, either end of the week. \n  \nServices: \nThe main town is Ullapool about 45 minutes’ drive from Rieff/Achiltibuie\, it has a Tesco\, food outlets\, bank/ATM and shops\, hotels\, cottages\, and a bunkhouse. Otherwise\, it’s the pubs mentioned below. \n  \nAccommodation: \nThere’s a campsite there\, at Port a Bhaigh (also good for kayaking and fishing)\, with some 40 spaces for campervans/motorhomes\, a shop and a pub\, the Am Fuaran Bar\, run by the owners of the site: www.portabhaig.co.uk. Another hotel/bar is the Summer Isles Hotel a little beyond the village. There’s also a small hostel with ‘sleeping pods’ 2 miles further south of the Summer Isles Hotel\, Acheninver Hostel. There’s a couple of cottages\, one sleeps up to 10 but I think a couple of these are kids’ bunks. \n  \nFood: \nFood outlets and supermarket in Ullapool as above\, also at the bars mentioned above. There’s a village store in Achiltibuie. \n  \nTransport: \nI imagine most will drive\, but you could fly to Inverness and hire a car from there\, probably about a 2-hour drive from the airport. Trains look a bit tricky\, with lots of changes. Nordic friends\, get in touch with Jim to coordinate pick up and passage… He’ll do what he can.

SUMMARY:AGM 2022 - North Wales

The venue provides easy access to Snowdonia as well as some local venues for excellent trad\, sport and bouldering. \nArrive Friday for a BBQ and to plan the following day’s activities which are likely to include a full day of trad in the National Park. \nThe AGM will be held on Saturday evening.

Indoors will be on a first come\, first served basis so book early if you don’t want to camp. \nFood: Bring your favourite BBQ food or something to chuck in the Aga. \nServices: Oswestry is 8 miles away which provides everything most people will need. \nTransport: Car is best… Otherwise\, arrive at Gobowen by train or Oswestry by bus and we will pick you up if you give us enough time to coordinate. Those travelling from Denmark\, this is the trip not to be missed contact Jim and he will try to coordinate lifts or direct you to the best airport\, probably Manchester\, Birmingham or Bristol.

DESCRIPTION:Staying at Aviemore SYHA Map ref OS 36 (GR893119) telephone no: 01479 810 345 email: aviemore@syha.org.uk \n  \nPlans are to climb in Coire an t-Sneachda\, Coire na Lochain and Hell’s Lum (to name a few) – there are plenty of Grade 1 and 2 climbs\, so good introductory climbs and lots to push the grade. Some big Grade 3\, 4 and 5s as well\, so good stuff for the bold. The walk-ins are quite easy\, a drive up to Cairngorm car park\, then about 1 to 2 hour walk in on reasonably easy ground for the nearest routes. \nThe hostel has kitchens and you can bring your own food. Plenty of shops in Aviemore to buy food if you need to. The Skiing Doo is the cheap bar/restaurant we will go to during the trip and we normally finish off with a big night out at one of the hotel restaurants on the last night (Tuesday). \nSomething for everyone but there is a focus for those who are planning a first trip to the Alps (watch out for that) to get some ice axe and crampon practice in… and maybe some crevasse rescue practice too\, if it doesn’t get in the way of climbing… \nPlease get in touch with Jim if you want to go and he may be able to sort some kit. Winter climbing equipment can be hired from Ellis Brigham in Aviemore https://www.ellis-brigham.com/stores/aviemore. \nLikewise\, any Danes interested (you should be) then please get in touch with Jim. He will coordinate airport collection and drop-off if possible.

SUMMARY:January Grit Trip
DESCRIPTION:A chance to get back out on the Gritstone on what might be a perfect\, cold\, clear Gritstone day… or a chance to do what you can in the rain. Limestone options available if you like that sort of thing and there’s always the bouldering and the walking. \nArrive Friday 28th and meet up at a hut! (I know… details below). Plans to climb all day Saturday and then again Sunday morning. There are two pubs within a 15 minute walk so chances are\, we will eat at one of those on the Saturday night. The hut has cooking options too. Venues for climbing can be agreed Friday night\, with a mind to the weather. Birchen and Gardoms within walking distance and all the usual haunts within a reasonable drive. Plenty to go at for everyone. \nAccommodation: We have made our bookings at Heathy Lea\, one of the\, Derby based\, Oread Climbing Club huts. Details HERE. To make your own booking\, follow the Hut link to ‘Hut Bookings’ and complete. We are classed as ‘Other’ and it is £10.00 per night.\nFor Organisation\, add BMSCMC.\nFor Affiliation\, choose BMC.\nFor Key Holder\, you may leave this blank and add the following text in the Notes box at the bottom: I am an additional booking part of the BMSCMC visit already booked in. Keyholder is Jim McCall. \nFood: Bring your own… and we may plan to eat at a pub. \nServices: Bank machines in Chesterfield and Buxton on the roads in… bring cash and card. Small shop at Calver.

SUMMARY:Grit for Christmas 2021
DESCRIPTION:Arrive Friday 17th December late in the evening. Meet up early at the crag (we’ll decide this on Friday when we know the weather) early and chase the grades and the routes. Climb Saturday and repeat Sunday before the drive home…\nStaying in Edale so the usual haunts means the Eastern Gritstone edges… Stanage\, Burbage\, Froggatt and Curber\, Gardom’s and Birchen. If time and weather permit\, then maybe get some bouldering in too. For those who prefer sport and limestone\, the quarries around Stony are not too far away. There are enough circular routes and pubs for those who prefer to go for a walk. I am hoping to convince a few of the Manchester or Nottingham crowd out for the day but if you are keen for a longer stay\, please get in touch with Jim. \nAccommodation and Food:\nStaying at Newfold Farm in Edale and the link is HERE . Cheap and fine… There are shops in Hathersage to buy food and a small outlet at the campsite. A few garages on the drive in have reasonable supplies. We’ll probably eat at the pub over the road on Friday and Saturday night. Bring your own is an option for the campsite. \nTransport and Travel:\nCar is easiest but Edale is on the main train line between Manchester and Sheffield… campsite is a 10 minute walk from the train station. \nVenue for the map:\nGrindsbrook Booth\, Edale\, Hope Valley S33 7ZD

SUMMARY:Dave’s South West Lakes “Adventurous Wainwrights” Trip
DESCRIPTION:Dave and Andrew will be resuming their quest for more adventurous ways of ascending the Wainwrights as Dave continues to tick off his second round. We will be staying in Eskdale and the plan includes scrambles up to Grade 3\, including Green Crag\, Harter Fell and Middle Fell\, Yewbarrow or Red Pike. Scafell may also be on the agenda. \nDetails\nWe are booked in at The Woolpack Inn and the YHA in Eskdale. We will arrive early on Tuesday 5th October for a full day of action. This gives us 3 full days and a short day on Friday before we return home. \nServices and Food\nThere’s a small grocery store in Holmrook\, a 10-minute drive from the Inn\, but we will rely largely on breakfast and lunch that we bring or buy at the accommodation\, and we will eat at the Inn. If you need any kit\, you’ll have to head to Kendal (about an hour’s drive). \nAccommodation\nDave is booked into The Woolpack and Andrew is at the YHA. There is still availability at both places. \nTransport\nCar required as we will be quite remote. Get in touch with Dave or Andrew if you want a lift. \nDates: Tuesday 5th to Friday 8th October 2021 \nContact: Dave Gent (davegent7@gmail.com) or Andrew Martin (avictorm1954@gmail.com)

SUMMARY:Trad Climbing in the Peak
DESCRIPTION:Leader:\nJoin Jade and Adam on a trip to the Peak\, to visit the Eastern Gritstone edges for a revision in Trad.

If you need a lift\, then get in touch with Jim and he will try to coordinate something. \n\nDates: 1st October to 3rd October 2021. \n\nOrganisers:\nJade Iontton\nAdam Ashbridge

SUMMARY:Peak and Snowdonia Trip August 2021
DESCRIPTION:Jim and Andrew planning to meet up in the Peak District\, on the Grit\, for bouldering and trad. Probably spend a few days on the Eastern Grit before driving over to Snowdonia for some of the Big Easies… Something for everyone! \nServices: \nPlenty of shops and services on the road in… Chesterfield and Sheffield from the East and Manchester from the west.  Hathersage has most services and is central to the Eastern Grit edges.

SUMMARY:Portland Bill DWS Trip
DESCRIPTION:Come and make the most of the sunny south coast in the middle of summer! \nIf you’ve never tried DWS then Portland is a great spot to start. Access to the routes is easy\, grades go down to sport 4+\, and there are plenty of short routes over very deep water (including several traverses where you’re only just off the surface). Add to this high tides through the middle of the day\, on both days and it’s like bouldering with a large\, blue\, splashy mat! \nFor those who want to push things a little harder\, there are safe 3-star routes all through the grades\, up to 7b+ (!). \nAccommodation is within walking distance of the crag and if the sea state is not suitable for DWS there are plenty of sport climbing\, walking and (rocky) beach options in the area\, as well as trad. and other DWS options within an hour’s drive. \n  \nThe Plan \nMeet up at the accommodation on Friday night (although those who live closer are welcome to join us on Saturday morning). Climb Saturday and Sunday\, before heading home Sunday afternoon / evening. \nThere are a large number of routes and grades at Portland Bill\, so two days will give us plenty of time to explore. DWS is very much like bouldering\, short intense bursts interspaced with chatting / recovering\, so there will be plenty of time for swimming\, paddle boarding and eating ice creams! There is also plenty of sport climbing in the area\, if you want to mix it up. \n  \nWhat to bring \nSwimmers\, large beach towel\, small hand towel\, optional wetsuit\, liquid chalk\, climbing shoes\, waterproof sun lotion\, anything else you want for the beach (i.e. paddle board\, snorkel\, etc.) \n  \nServices \nThere is a supermarket on Portland\, as well as plenty of pubs and takeaways. Portland Bunkhouse also has a kitchen and a BBQ area. \nAccommodation \nLilla and I will be staying in the Portland Bunkhouse (http://www.portlandbunkhouse.com/index.php). At £17 per night and walking distance to the crag (as well as several sport climbing crags)\, what’s not to like?! \nFor those who would rather camp\, there is a basic campsite just up the road\, at Sweet Hill Farm (https://www.pitchup.com/campsites/England/South_West/Dorset/Portland/sweet-hill-farm/?type=4) \n  \nFood \nIf the weather allows then I will be making full use of the bunkhouse’s BBQ area on the Saturday night! There is also a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of takeaways and pubs. \nTransport \nCar is by far the easiest way to both get to Portland and around it. However\, the nearest station is just over the causeway in Weymouth and so (if Covid allows) we could organise a pickup from there. \n  \nDetails \nStart: 30/31 July \nEnd: 01 August \nOrganisers: Will & Lilla Beaumont \nVenue: Portland Bunkhouse (DT5 2JT) & the cliffs near the Lobster Pot takeaway (DT5 2JT)

SUMMARY:Return To Somerset 2021
DESCRIPTION:Return to the Club’s most southern UK bunkhouse (finally!) and aim to boulder\, sport and trad climb… and then drink cider (joking!)… all within 20 minutes. This was the best trip of the year in 2019 (and nothing happened in 2020) so don’t miss out! \nFriday evening bouldering at Ubley Warren Rocks. Saturday sport and trad options at a variety of close locations including: Cheddar\, Avon Gorge\, Goblin Coomb\, Fairy Cave Quarry and Sand Point to name a few… Read the last (valid) trip report to this location for more information… Families very welcome. And the only trip that has a Scandinavian fire pit and more whisky that all the attendant ‘Daves’ and ‘Dans’ can drink… \nAccommodation and food \nFree at Jim’s house. Book early and you may get a bed. Otherwise\, bring a sleeping bag and floor space available. If you need privacy\, then bring a tent as the garden is big. Dogs very welcome but they are not allowed to chase the sheep! Or the cows! Or my next door neighbour\, the farmer will have words with me. I will cook evening meals on the BBQ and there is always something for breakfast. Bring your own lunches and alcohol. Anyone travelling from Denmark\, please bring some Tuborg Classic… Thanks! \nServices \nPost office and local shop 2km up the road. Cash machine if the link is working. 3 pubs within 10 minute drive. We may end on a visit to one of the local pubs if allowed… \nTransport and travel: Plenty of parking at Jim’s.

Everyone else\, get in touch for directions to my house. \n  \nUbley Rocks: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crag.php?id=19051 \nCheddar Gorge: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crag.php?id=2280 (North side only as there are access issues during Summer months) \nAvon Gorge: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crag.php?id=31 (This link to the Main Wall area but other walls listed) \nFairy Cave Quarry: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crag.php?id=1290 (Ok\, so this is about 30 minutes away) \n  \nOrganiser: Jim McCall

SUMMARY:David Judge’s Over The Moors Trip
DESCRIPTION:Itinerary:  \n  A venture onto the Kinder Plateau to search out some forgotten Gritstone… this may be a day out from Nottingham or Manchester or weekend visit for those further afield… Who knows? The whole trip is really to justify the Club buying the ‘Over the Moors’ guidebook by Martin Kocsis. Plans to meet up at Edale at 09:00 on Saturday 05.06.2021. We will make plans on the day. Possible venues may include: Upper Tor\, Nether Tor or The Woolpacks. If the weather is that bad\, then we might just go for a walk\, though Kinder Downfall might go in the rain? \n  As this trip was planned in January 2020\, there were no booking opportunities… best if people make their own plans… Climb Saturday and maybe try and find something to do Sunday before the trip home for those who have a longer commute.  \nServices:  \nNot as many card machines as you think in the Peak… so bring cash. Especially so for the car parks\, as they need coinage and don’t take change… Trail food available in Edale… or bring your own.  \nFood:  \nSee accommodation but plenty of pub options… you only need to ask.  \nAccommodation:  \nNothing can be booked this early… this trip was planned in January 2020… Contact David or Jim and you might get some up to date considerations… or you may just visit for the day…  \nTransport:  \nYou will probably arrive by car… There is a large carpark (bring lots of coins) in Edale. Trains from Manchester or Sheffield run regular and early… aim for Edale Station.

SUMMARY:AGM 2021 (Never again let us have to do this online!)
DESCRIPTION:*Here are the amended details for the AGM\, with new dates.*\nSee email sent on Friday 26/2/21 before booking campsite. Please let Jim know that you are booking so that he can add you to our risk assessment.\nAfter last year’s AGM\, we are all super excited! Plans this year include camping so we have posted the dates a little later… for those who like the comfort. Camp in the heart of the Peak District at Edale\, climb more Grit than you know what to do with then sit at a camp site and wave at each other… discussing the merits of Amazon toilet tents… \nArrive Friday 21.05.21 at the campsite and plans to climb somewhere on Stanage on the Saturday… Spend an hour in the cold agreeing to anything so we can go in\, then… Plans to be confirmed Saturday for Sunday\, so get an opinion! Head home Sunday. With current rules\, it is worth planning early so all members can make plans and seek to join. Hopefully\, camping will make social distancing easier if required. \nAs ever\, an agenda will be posted by the Vice President\, President and Secretary at least one month before. If you wish to add anything\, then please raise this as early as possible. Then\, your views or discussion points will be included. \n  \nAccommodation: We’ve chosen camping as it makes it easier to socially distance… however\, there are camper options and teepees available for those who want more comfort. Please book early! We are camping at Newfold Farm campsite in Edale. \nNewfold Farm Campsite Grindsbrook Booth Edale Hope Valley Derbyshire S33 7ZD \nT: 01433 670401 \nE: campsite@newfoldfarmedale.com \nW: www.newfoldfarmedale.com \nGrid reference: SK122855 \n  \nFood: Bring your own… there is a small shop and a very good takeaway pizza oven on the campsite\, and these may be open for our visit. Updates to follow \n  \nServices: Bank machines in Chesterfield and Buxton on the roads in… bring cash and card. Small shops in Hathersage. Probably best to get what you need before arriving… \n  \nTransport: Car is best… Otherwise\, arrive at Edale by train (walking distance from campsite) or Hathersage by bus from Manchester or Sheffield and we will pick you up if you give us enough time to coordinate. Those travelling from Denmark\, this is the trip not to be missed\, and many of you haven’t! Contact Jim and he will try to coordinate lifts (if allowed) or direct you to the best airports… Probably Manchester (currently SAS and Easyjet) or Birmingham (currently SAS). If conditions allow\, Jim can pick you up Thursday night in Bristol (Easyjet) and will coordinate departure if you get in touch! Good luck! \nOrganiser: Jim McCall

SUMMARY:Dartmoor Bouldering and Trad
DESCRIPTION:Meet up Saturday morning at 09:00 and walk over to Smallacombe Rocks. Spend the morning bouldering and then back to the cars for a short drive round to Haytor and some classic Trad. If staying over\, then options to take in some of the classic trad on the Tors or checkout bouldering around Bovey Tracey\, on the road back east… \nServices:\nBovey Tracey has banks and shops and is a convenient stop off on the way over the Moors… Bovey is the self-appointed ‘Gateway of the Moors’ and will provide all the necessaries… \nAccommodation:\nSome of those in the South West may treat this as an extended day trip but for those that want to stay over…\nSaying that\, none of the campsites are open until April so it’s a case of find somewhere on the drive in or wild camp… which is allowed on Dartmoor. The National Park normally publishes a map to wild camping and local restrictions\, including camping 100m from the road and not in sight of any buildings. Currently\, during lockdown\, this advice has been removed. \nFood:\nBetter bring your own and be self-sufficient but pub options are available if the world is open… and if it’s not\, then we won’t be there. \nTransport:\nCars are the new eco option…

SUMMARY:Now that’s what I call a Corona Christmas walk
DESCRIPTION:[DATE CHANGED]\nIn order to respect Tier 3 travel restrictions currently in place\, this year ‘Ye Olde Christmas Walke’ will leave its traditional home in the Peak district and take place in neighbouring Nottinghamshire on Sunday 27th December. Unfortunately\, restrictions also mean that this year’s walk is only open to members who are local residents. \nTo make sure everyone attending can enjoy the day safely\, we’ll be organising the trip in line with the COVID-19 guidance for organised groups’ walks. We will ask participants to sign up for the walk in advance and you’ll be asked to follow some key steps before\, during and afterwards to ensure we are following government guidance. These steps will be shared directly with registered attendees ahead of the walk\, along with the risk assessment. \nOur route is still to be confirmed\, but we’re aiming for a good ten miler to flatten the Christmas Curve. Kings\, stars\, donkeys and gold will abound! \nFor more information and to register your attendance\, please contact the walk leader Alison Sail. \nAccommodation:\nIt’s a day trip only… you are staying local and going home. \nFood:\nPlease bring everything you need and do not rely on visiting local services. \nTransport:\nCars are the new eco-option… but please follow rules about individual travel. You cannot travel in a car with a person not in your bubble. \nOther:\nPlease read the risk assessment before the day. \nDate: 27.12.2020. \nOrganisers: Alison Sail

SUMMARY:Snowdonia Scrambling Trip
DESCRIPTION:Join me on a trip to Snowdonia and get some classic Snowdonia Scrambles in over a 3 day weekend\n\nItinerary:\nPlan is to travel to Snowdonia on Friday morning in time for an 10am start. Plans are pretty fluid (and weather dependant) but would like to spend a few days doing some Classic Grade I scrambles. Some ideas include the Cwm Bochlwyd Horseshoe perhaps\, a number of options on the Carneddau Round or a particularly exciting Northern Cwms of the Glyders day out which would be dependent on some of our more experienced club members attending to assist!\nThere’s also plenty of climbing\, bouldering and hiking close by for those that want to plan their own agenda and just link up in the evening. So no excuses\, everyone is welcome!\n\nServices:\nShops and other services (including cash machines) in Beddgelert\n\nFood:\nI’m happy to organise and cook dinner for Friday night (just let me know if you’re interested) and we can split the cost of the food. Beddgelert is a few miles away for perhaps an evening meal and a few beers out one evening.\n\nAccommodation:\nCamping at Llwyn Gwynant campsite\nhttp://gwynant.com/find-us/\nSpace available at the moment\, there’s 6 of us already booked in.\n\nTransport/travel: \nMeet at the campsite and you need to plan being in a car to get around.
