Bill and Dom's excellent adventure. North America Wall.

Back in 2018 Bill and Dom headed stateside on a trip into the Yosemite Valley. Following in the footsteps of Royal Robbins they ticked one of the Valley's finest routes - North America Wall.

No hammers were used in the making of the ascent.

Five years after the Club’s lease of Cwm Eigiau ended in 1921 a sub-committee was formed to find a replacement “in some local climbing or tramping area but not so difficult of access as was the Cwm Eigiau hut or even so far off as the Langdale Valley”. A search for premises close to the Kinder/Bleaklow area proved fruitless but then Herbert Carr, Hon. Sec. of the Climbers’ Club and former Rucksack Club member, suggested Tal y Braich Uchaf, a small farmhouse near to Helyg, the CC’s new hut in the Ogwen Valley. A lease was signed in February 1927 and we are fortunate to have in the archives Keith Treacher’s unpublished history of Tal y Braich covering the next seventeen years.

Throwback to February 2019 where a group of us spent a week on our annual ice climbing meet in Cogne - the conditions were fantastic which made it all the more enjoyable.
