AGM 2021 (Never again let us have to do this online!)
Newfold Farm Campsite Grindsbrook Booth, Edale, Derbyshire, United Kingdom*New dates*
Here are the amended details for the AGM, with new dates. See email sent on Friday 27/2/21 before booking campsite. Please let Jim know that you are booking so that he can add you to our risk assessment.
After 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…
David Judge’s Over The Moors Trip
YHA Edale Nether Booth, Hope Valley, United KingdomA 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?
Grit for Christmas 2021
Newfold Farm Campsite Grindsbrook Booth, Edale, Derbyshire, United KingdomJoin Jim in the Peak District for a last chance to up your trad score before Christmas… Probably visiting the usual haunts and taking advantage of cold weather and good friction.
January Grit Trip
Balsow (Heathy Lea Hut) Bakewell, Baslow, Derbyshire, United KingdomA 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.
December Gritstone Trip
Hathersage S32 1DA , United KingdomA chance to get some last of the year climbing in on the Grit. As ever, the Peak offers good options for those keen to develop their leading, for families and for those looking to push their grade. Limestone and hillwalking available too.
Return to the Grit March 2024
Hathersage S32 1DD Hathersage, United KingdomBack on the Grit now the weather has improved… Gritstone will be at its best… A good trip to those who are keen to lead, those with families, and those wanting to push their grades… Something for everyone. Limestone and hillwalking are local options too…
