18 – 19 October, Dave “Snod” Helliwell,
Back again at the Fylde Club hut in Little Langdale where we have enjoyed so
many great meets over the years. Grid ref NY31575 03014 Bargain price too – it is
a hut swap so we only pay our own members’ rates £5.00 a night!

The hut is well situated for climbing on the classic Langdale crags – Gimmer,
Raven, Pavey Ark plus the nearby slate of Hodge Close offering harder routes as
well as a dry tooling venue. Great mountain walking – nearby peaks include
Wetherlam, Great Carr and Pike O’Bliscoe which form part of a horseshoe walk
around the valley (and the line of the Three Shires Fell Race). There’s also
brilliant mountain biking in Grisedale Forest not far away. If the weather is
unkind there’s the stunning Cathedral quarry to explore right next door and
tempting short walks to sample the delights of the Cake Farm (bring cash!) or
there’s always Ambleside Climbing Wall.
We have 16 beds for Friday and Saturday nights. (Extra nights before or after
may be available but must be booked direct with the FMC hut warden, Jen
Chambers, email fmc.bookings@outlook.com)
Parking is limited so we need to car share as much as possible.
Bookings are coming in already so don’t delay – book your bed with me:
