May Meets

Good afternoon,

Here are some teasers for our May meets:

 

Spring really takes off in May, so the Rucksack Club calendar is packed with activities to encourage us all to get out and enjoy the mountains:

• Taking advantage of the bank holiday weekend, we have a camping trip over the wild hills of the Ben Alder Forest, both north and south of the Bealach Dubh. We start from the remote railway station at Corrour on Saturday 2nd, then head north east to Beinn Eibhinn for our first ascent (of many…)
• The following weekend we’re off to our great hut in North Wales, Beudy Mawr, with climbing in mind. 
• Another weekend, another country – this time (15-17 May) we’re in England, the Duddon Valley to be precise, to enjoy the Lake District from our superb hut, High Moss. This is a joint meet with the Wayfarers. 
• Just a week later and we’re back to Scotland, this time taking advantage of Craigallan, our wonderful hut in Ballachulish, to give us a springboard for tackling the great ridges of Ben Nevis, not to mention trying out the new kitchen. 
• Finally in May, we’re back to High Moss to coincide with the Duddon Valley Fell Race; but running it is not compulsory!
