Re: Sport Climbing in Kalymnos Oct 2024
A climbing buddy from Stockport will be joining me from 11th-19th October - we'll both be staying at the Nefeli Hotel in Myrties. I'm staying on until 22nd October, so will be looking for others to climb with for the last 3 days. Sounds like some people I know in the Pinnacle Club will also be out t...

Re: Duddon valley (High Moss) - 22nd/ 23rd March 2024
I stayed there last summer. It's got a big kitchen with catering style equipment. Pretty sure it's got a couple of large ovens, but if you want to be certain, why don't you ask the hut warden?

Re: Duddon valley (High Moss) - 22nd/ 23rd March 2024
A Greek/Turkish idea - I could make some babaganoush - though it's very time consuming and costly on gas (as it takes ages to roast aubergines sufficiently). JR. Tip: If you roast the aubergines direct on a gas hob rather than in the oven it takes about 15 mins. Then about 5 mins to remove the char...

Re: Coniston Copper Mines Hut - 23rd - 25th Feb
I should be arriving at the hut around 4ish. I'm going for a low-level run heading NE from Coniston village first.

Re: Coniston Copper Mines Hut - 23rd - 25th Feb
I've been advised that the track is driveable in an old-style BMW saloon, so should be OK for almost any vehicle.
Sounds like it may have been resurfaced in recent years.

Re: Coniston Copper Mines Hut - 23rd - 25th Feb
Really looking forward to the tapas feast! I will bring Habas con Jamon (broad beans with Serrano ham and mint). For vegetarians, I could also make some Habas sin Jamon. It also works well with smoked salmon instead of ham (although I know that's not vegetarian). So that I can work out how much to m...

Re: Coniston Copper Mines Hut - 23rd - 25th Feb
Isn't it part of the LMC experience to make a sporting attempt at a rough mountain track in a rusty old banger/ your shiny new steed?

Re: Coniston Copper Mines Hut - 23rd - 25th Feb
And it will be worth keeping an eye on the weather and ground conditions in the run-up to the meet. That track up to the Coppermines won't be a go-er if its icy or snowy. The alternative is parking somewhere in Coniston and backpacking up. It's not far. Thanks Cath,I will keep an eye on the weather...

Re: Coniston Copper Mines Hut - 23rd - 25th Feb
How many folk are ‘in’ for the communal meal? How many are we catering for and special diets? I'm 'in' for the communal tapas. I'll bring a dish or two, but it won't be enough to feed 19 people! Looks like we'll need a few more contributions. And I'm happy to eat anything. As long as it's Spanish :...
