Hi all,

The last trip of term is coming up, to Yorkshire of course, to make sure we get our fill of epic abseils and grim crawls before the break.

When: Friday 17/03/2023 at 17:00 to Sunday 19/03/2023 at 23:45

Where: Yorkshire Dales National Park

Membership: you need membership to join weekend trips (£30.00) (membership lasts the entire year)

Price:  Capped at £45. Please only buy the trip fee once your spot on this trip has been confirmed. We aim to confirm spots late this week / early next week and an email with more details will be sent out then. 

This trip requires ‘single rope technique’ (SRT) – you must have completed all of the techniques at tree training before the trip..  If you haven’t completed the necessary rope training to come on SRT trips, the next opportunity to do so unfortunately won’t be until October when the club will be running novice events.

Sign up: Please reply to this email if you would like to come. Please tell us your full name, any dietary requirements, any medical conditions.

Leaders who have access to our spreadsheet, please add your name there.  

We will meet in stores on Tuesday (14/03) at 17:00 to pack kit. You do not need any equipment of your own, we will provide everything you could possibly need in a cave. A thermal base layer is beneficial on particularly cold weekends, if you happen to own thermals. Please also remember a sleeping bag for the hut – if you don’t have one, let us know before we leave and we can lend you one. We’ll be staying at the NPC.

We’re at the pub every Tuesday as usual if you have any questions or just want a chat. Our AGM is also coming up on the evening of 21^st March, so if you’re thinking about running for committee positions feel free to ask about what they involve. Another reminder email will come out next week about that.

Trips next term are:

02-04/06 Yorkshire 4 (SRT required) - NPC

16-18/06 Yorkshire 5 (SRT required) – Bullpot Farm

Yours till the last meandering streamway,

Matti Mitropoulos
