Little Langdale Christmas hut meet

17th January 2022 by Andy Hudson Leave a Comment

meet report by Shirley

Thanks Dick for coordinating the Little Langdale Christmas hut meet. Some of us took advantage of a Fridays good weather window and went up Kentmere pike in great conditions with fab views.

The hut has had quite a few renovations since our last visit – rewired, new windows, fresh paintwork … and 3 comfy seats between the 7 so musical chairs throughout the weekend!

Disappointing weather didn’t deter activities on Saturday as we went over Wetherlam, via Tibberthwaite. We did bail out to the valley from Swirl Hause as the mist, drizzle, wind and slush dampened enthusiasm for the whole circuit.

Back at the hut while preps began for our communal meal, Jenga challenges kept some of us amused and others joined in the festive spirit singing christmas carols with students in the adjoining cottage.

We chose a shorter low level walk from the hut via Skelwith Bridge and Elterwater on Sunday before getting tidied and packed. Although only 7 of us were able to go on the meet, it was great to get together again.

Winter Climbing/Mountaineering Instruction

22nd November 2021 by Andy Hudson Leave a Comment

Olly Roberts – Winter Climbing/Mountaineering Instruction

I’m Olly Roberts, a mountaineering and climbing instructor based in Settle. I’m working towards to my winter mountaineering and climbing instructor (WMCI used to be MIC) award. I have my assessment later in the winter. 

I was wondering whether you would be able to share my details with club members who may be interested in some winter climbing/mountaineering instruction. I have a number of dates/gaps available for trips during January and February. 

As I am not qualified there will be no cost for instruction. I am a BMC member and therefore have public liability insurance. 

I’ve been working in the outdoor industry for the last 15 years and climbing and hillwalking since my teenage years, I’m now 32. I grew up in Pateley Bridge. 

I am a qualified Mountaineering and Climbing Instructor (passed 2014) and Winter Mountain Leader (passed 2015) and hold my own AALA licence and insurance. I also hold other qualifications in caving, mountain biking and paddle sports. I am a member of the Cave Rescue Organisation. 

I currently work part time at Giggleswick School as the Head of Outdoor Pursuits and also run my own business teaching climbing and mountain skills as well as providing introductory experiences to adults and schools. I run a lot of courses teaching trad leading and specific sport climbing courses. I provide winter skills courses in the Lakes when conditions allow as well as working in Scotland. 

I have been winter climbing and mountaineering since 2007 visiting Scotland every winter. I have done numerous trips to the Alps, climbing peaks such as the Matterhorn, Aiguille Verte and Mont Blanc. I have also climbed ice in Rjukan and ski toured around the Alps. I’m currently planned a trip back to Lofoten and Stetind for next summer.
