\n\n \n\n \n\nMeet Organiser – Pete Telling.
\nNOTE. DATE CHANGES
\nThe meet date will now be Thursday 1st July to Sunday 4th July
\nApologies to everyone for the changes twice to the dates. Circumstances dictated this\, and I realise it means that this meet follows on directly from the North Wales meet\, and that may mean some of the members going to North Wales may not be able to attend this meet. We can always have another Peaks meet later on in the ye ar.\n\n \n\nIf you have made an on line booking with the site\, please pos t this so that I know who is booked in\, and when you are arriving. I will travel with Patrick & Ro Thursday to Sunday unless Helen is going alone a nd wishes to share\, then it will be Friday to Sunday.\n\n \n\nThis is an annual RoCs weekend meet to the delights of the Peak District National Par k. We will be camping at the usual site near Hathersage at the North Lees (Peak District National Park) camp site. This is about 1 mile due North of Hathersage. This meet is suitable for all members as it is ideal for begi nners and the more experienced climbers in the club. If you have never cli mbed outside on real rock\, we can take you up some really easy nice rock. There is a wide choice of gritstone crags to choose from\, some with a fe w multi pitch routes\, but mainly all single pitch with a short walk in.\n \n \n\nThe campsite is a small friendly site with wash and shower faciliti es. It also has some wooden Pods if you prefer not to use a tent. All you will need for a Pod is a sleeping mat and bag plus your own cooking gear\, just as you would for a tent. There is heating and lighting in the Pods. If you wish to use a Pod\, or a Camper Van\, please book this in a dvance yourself. A deposit may be required for a Pod booking.\n\n To book a camping or camper van slot\, you will need to g o to the North Lees website here and book a pitch or a camper van slot on line\, and pay for this yourself. I am unable t o do the usual group booking this year as they want exact numbers and all money up front. If you are car sharing\, then you can make one bo oking for all the people in your car group up to 5 and pay for all those p eople in on transaction\, thus only paying for one car and however number of people in that group. If you are travelling alone you will need to book your own pitch and a car slot. If you do not book\, there will not be any spaces as they are getting booked up now.\n\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n\n\nThe contact details for the site are 01433 650838. To get to the campsite from Hathersage\, go west on the A6187 Main Street and TR before the railway bridge up Jaggers Lane\, then TR up Coggers Lane for about 1/2 mile\, then TR into Birley Lane. After a bout 1/2 mile North Lees site is on your left just before a left hand ben d. There is a wooden gate (often closed) to enter the site. Ignore the “Ca mpsite full” sign as we will have a booking for Romsey Climbers under my n ame. We will be car sharing as much as possible due to the limited parking spaces and to save fuel costs.\n\nHathersage has a couple of pubs\, (alth ough the Robin Hood pub in Hathersage is now not very good for food and at mosphere so we may need to travel further afield to the one we used last y ear)\, food shops and a few Outdoor gear shops so all you need for a weeke nd away with RoCs. If you prefer the luxury of a proper bed ???? then the re are B&B’s\, hotels and Youth Hostels in and around Hathersage\, but boo k early to ensure a room. Be aware if you choose to book accommodation and we have to cancel the meet at the last moment due to extreme bad weather\ , you may lose your deposit with your booking.\n\nBring along some wet wea ther walking gear as well\, (waterproof coat\, over trousers and walking b oots) just in case the weather turns damp and we decide to go for a bit of a bog trot up on the hills. You will also need to bring along breakfast a nd any cooking gear required\, food for mid-day lunch as there are no food facilities at the crags. We will be eating at a pub in the evenings if we can get in. If not we will be campsite cooking!\n\n \n\nPeople going.\n
