There seems to be a steady wee group of climbers building up. Hopefully get plenty of climbing trips over the summer ;D

I'm Tim's climbing buddy, and I'd be up for this too. I have my own harness and rock shoes etc. I'm going on a trad climbing trip to the Peak District on the 17th, which should be pretty awesome :D

I too have a lot of uni work though, so I'll have to wait a few weeks.

Take loads of photos

I have a couple of spare harness`s if anyone wants to come along and try out the climbing

Allyc  it could be Sunday 17th April before i get out climbing again if that date suits you to come along ?

Hi Big E  Come along and try out the climbing, if you like it buy climbing shoes next, the equipment is expensive but i gathered it up piece by piece over several years


Hi Tim   Aye come along i'll get you started, We'll get a few people together and go through the basics

If I don't get to the Peak District for coursework related reasons, I might tag along too, if that's okay.

Looks like I'm not going to get to the Peak District  :(

So what's the plan for the 17th? Anyone have any particular routes in mind? Hen Mountain is supposed to be good, or the Bearnagh Slabs may be fun.

Also, I can offer a lift to anyone from the Ballynahinch area who's coming along, if it's still happening.

Sounds like a plan Alan. Me and ZTO have got ourselves sorted with helmets and we have our own harnesses, shoes etc but no rope or rack other than a sling and a few screwgates. We've also been invited for a bit of climbing on Saturday the 16th in the Mournes as well so I think we're going to bivvy somewhere on Saturday night and meet you all at Hen on Sunday morning
