DESCRIPTION:Selvaggio Blu\nSaturday 29thst April  to Saturday 6th May 2023 \nThis is a big one\, the ‘Wild Blue’\, a 4 to 5 day trek through one of the last pieces of wilderness on the Mediterranean coast and considered one of the best (and hardest) walks in Europe. Along the way there will be beautiful beaches\, scrambling up to grade IV\, several abseils\, jaw-dropping views\, and wild camping every night. Pop it into a Google image search and then get in touch! 😊  \nWe have these dates pencilled in the park authority’s diary\, so they are unlikely to change (again). Permit numbers per day for this walk are restricted and although there is currently good availability this may change. I’m also keen to get organised reasonably early so that we can get decent deals on flights\, accommodation\, etc.\, so please get in touch soon if you want to share these costs!  \nTo limit what we must carry and due to the lack of natural water sources we will be hiring a company to provide food and water drops to us\, at the end of each day. However\, walking will be over rough ground\, with plenty of assent and decent\, whist carrying your bivouac and abseil equipment\, along with food and water for the day\, so a good level of fitness will be required.   \nThere are also lots of other walking and climbing options around Santa Maria Navarresse. So\, this would also be a good opportunity for anyone who would like to visit the surrounding area to either\, stay on after the walk or to do your own thing whilst we are walking and join up with those doing the walk afterwards.  \nIf you would like to join this trip contact me and I will send you a more detailed information pack. Due to the logistics and permit restrictions the number of places in the group is limited\, so if you are keen to join contact me early. That said\, if the trip proves popular\, I would be happy to help someone else organise a second group.  \n\nThe Plan \nSeveral of us will be flying out on Friday the 28th April\, to get a head start on arranging supplies and permits. You’re welcome to join us if you want to split the cost of car hire or feel free to fly out on the Saturday if you want to save a day’s annual leave.   \nFriday the 28th April  \nFly out\, pick up the hire car(s)\, drive to Santa Maria Navarresse.  \nSaturday the 29th April  \nPick up our permits\, buy supplies and drop them off with the logistics company. Anybody not flying out on Friday will have to join the group at some point today.  \nSunday the 30th April – Thursday the 4th May\, walk the Selvaggio Blu!   \nWe are aiming to do the medium length variation of the walk (Santa Maria Navarresse to Cala Sisine) over 5 days\, the daily times\, and distances vairy from 3.5 to 10.5 hours\, and 2 to 19 km. I have made a detailed itinerary of route options\, with daily distances and grade breakdowns and will send it out as part of the information pack\, just get in touch. We will discuss as a group which option\, we would like to take\, once I know who is interested.  \nFriday the 5th onwards  \nYou can then either head straight home on the 5th or decide head back with me on the 6th. Alternatively there are there are lots of other walking and climbing options in the area\, if you want to stay longer.  \n\nWhat to bring \nA detailed recommended kit list is in the information pack\, just get in touch. The walk is usually tackled in a ‘fast and light’ style\, so a bivvy instead of a tent is recommended and minimal gear for wild walking\, scrambling\, and abseiling will be shared amongst the group.  \n\nServices \nThere is and outdoor shop\, as well as food shops and restaurants in Santa Maria Navarresse.   \n\nAccommodation \nThere are lots of Airbnb options in Santa Maria Navarresse for before and after the walk\, which one we go for will depend on the group size. Bivouacs are the recommended option whilst walking but a light tent is also possible\, if you are willing to carry it.   \n\nFood \nIt is not realistic to carry all the food and water required to complete this trek independently\, as such several outdoor companies in the area offer logistical services. They will drop off food and water for us at our designated camping spot at the end of each day\, either by boat or 4×4. As a group we will need to provide our own food and water packaged and labelled for each day and drop this off with them before we set out.  \n\nTransport \nA hire car is the best way to get to Santa Maria Navarresse\, as well as get around the island after the trek. The logistics company will take us from the end of the trek back to Santa Maria Navarresse.  \n\nDetails\nStart: 28 or 29/04/2023  \nEnd: 05 or 06/04/2023  \nOrganisers: Will Beaumont  \nVenue: Santa Maria Navarresse  \n

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.

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. \nFood:\nBetter bring your own and be self-sufficient but pub options are available. \nTransport:\nCars is the best plan. Public transport doesn’t really exist on the moors.

SUMMARY:Somerset 2022
DESCRIPTION:Synopsis: \nJoin Jim back in Somerset for Trad\, Bouldering\, Sport and Hill-Walking (at a push)…  Something for everyone. \nInfo: \nMeet up at Jim’s house on Friday 1st July 2022 and climb at local venues on Friday\, Saturday and Sunday… Venues include: Avon\, Cheddar\, Goblin Coombe\, Sand Point and so many quarries\, if you like that sort of thing. Bouldering venues from the new guidebook… plenty to go at… don’t worry about that! \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 by Sunday lunch… \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… (and just to point out\, this is not available at the airport\, so you need to buy it and put it in your hold luggage… [I know!] Thanks\, it’s been two years now!). \nTransport and Travel: \nPlenty of parking at Jim’s. Bristol by bus or train and then local buses out to West Harptree available. Get in touch with Jim if you need pick up. If any Danes are keen (you should be) then get in touch with Jim and we’ll try to arrange pick up from an airport. Bristol airport is 20 minutes away and has direct flights from Copenhagen. Everyone else\, get in touch for directions to my house. I’ll post map directions on the WhatsApp\, closer to the time. \n Dates:01.07.2022 to 03.07.2022 \nOrganiser: \n  Jim

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
DESCRIPTION:This year’s AGM will be hosted by VP Keith at his new(ish) home in the Welsh Borders. 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. As ever\, an agenda will be posted by the President\, Vice 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. \nAt this stage\, the plan for Sunday is likely to be a trip to Llangollen where people can choose between trad\, sport and/or bouldering. \nAccommodation: Keith’s place offers a mix of indoor accommodation and plenty of riverside camping. 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.
