Fourteen members met at the Tremadog hut, owned by Redditch and Broomsgrove Mountaineering club, for the 15th – 18th April. Great weather allowed for lots of climbing on the Moelwyns and Tremadog. So good that by midday Monday most of us were climbed out, and had moved on to the ice cream phase of the meet, or took the early ride home. Popular routes included: at Tremadog; Valerie’s Rib and Christmas Curry; and at the Moelwyns; Africa Rib, Kirkus Direct, Slick and Chic. The hut is immediately below the Tremadog cliffs, so you can gear up and walk round the corner to routes. Other activities included walking and viewing local ospreys. Welcome to Ian, Andy and Eden for their first away meet. For Andy and Eden this was also an introduction to multi-pitch routes. The Moelwyns are ideal for this with a lot of 3 and 4 pitch routes, at an easy grade and with good stances. Thanks to all who led the communal meals, and to the Redditch and Broomsgrove club for running the hut. The hut’s location would make it a good venue for another meet and it does not seem to be used as much as it should be. Rosie is organising the pictures which will appear on social media. Thanks to all for your company. Geoff Nichols
