Mercian Mountaineering Club

Hello

Camping season is upon us. We will be going to Holyhead in the furthest most corner of Anglesey. 3 nights, from Friday 29/4 to Monday 1/5.

Gogarth and Holyhead mountain are both close by for climbing, a short walk brings you to a sheltered cove for swimming, or you could take the coastal path around the headland.

20 spaces have been booked at £11 per night. There is an on site shop, free Wifi (if you cant stand to be away from the interweb for 3 days), all the usual stuff for a posh campsite. See link below.

Sign up if you've got nothing better to do.

Cheers
Adam

I'm in. Thanks.

Your enthusiasm is infectious, count me in

Anyone got the Gogarth south guidebook yet? Is there anything below HVS for us to climb?

Dream of White Horses....?

I'm in.

My birthday wknd, so can serve cake. Let me know if anyone can offer a lift from Moseley, or elsewhere in Bham. Thanks

I'm in also

We've got other plans for the bank holiday but it's a great place to go...

We found the perfect Mercian climbing venue: Porth Saint Head, Rhoscolyn: easy to access, plenty of room for picnics, and a range of very generous grading. The best routes are tidal to make sure that you check out times before you go. Do take a range of gear as some routes need very small cams/nuts but plenty take your average size gear. Hexes are good for belays. Routes are short and fairly straight so single rope is fine (we used a doubled up 60m half rope).

Go buy the South Gogarth guide and enjoy!

Thanks for the beta Naomi.

yeah me and a +1 shall attend

Please add me to the list.

I'm a weather dependent yes. Probably come up on Saturday but will confirm in the week. I was thinking about taking a bike but mtb on Anglesey looks non existent....... Bugger, I may be forced to climb

Dude, sorry, change of plans, can you please drop me off the list. Cheers, H

Please add me to the list. Also weather dependent !!

Can you add me to the list of Fairweather mercians please!
