We’ve booked the Don Whillans hut in a magical location at the bottom of the crag. It sleeps 12 people in 2 bunk rooms. There is plenty of Trad climbing and Bouldering on the finest gritstone on our doorstep at both the Roaches and Hen Cloud. The Trad is mainly single pitch, but there are some two pitch climbs.

Charlotte would like to come, and stay in the hut.
Charlotte now is unable to go.
I’ll come along please 🙂 will confirm if hutting or camping
I’ll stay in the hut if there’s any room please 🙂
I’m interested in this trip, I would camp
Please put me down as a probable. I won’t know until June if I can definitely come. Normally I’d camp, happy to contribute to the hut.
The local campsite we sometimes use as well as the hut is fully booked, so all the members will be staying in the Hut. It sleeps 12 so we need a few more to make it a good deal and more fun!!
Okay, finally got my brain in gear so I’m in for this one! Will be arriving Friday after work 🙂
I currently have authorisation for this trip so I’m in! I would prefer to camp but if this is not an option then I am happy to to stay in the hut.
Great! I will add you to the list for Ivan as he does not have permission.
I’d like to come along too please if there’s still space 🙂
Great Lizzie you have been added
Please can I be added?
I’d rather stay in the hut. Thanks
Hi Adam, you have been added. I will add you to the Whats App group as well
With the number of people we’ve got signed up now the hut costs will be relatively low. I’ll work these out after the weekend.
For bedding, only mattresses are provided, so please whatever else you need.
On meals, I’m figuring everyone sorts out their own breakfast and lunches. For main meals, I was thinking we’d eat at the hut every evening, but this would mean people volunteering to organise a meal. In the same breath, if people would like to eat out, we could do that (there’s enough of us to do both too). Please could everyone let me know what they’d prefer and if you’re happy to cook a meal at the hut (via the whatsapp chat or private message to me please – as I don’t check this page regularly). (I’m happy to cook one evening.)
If you’re in any doubt over what’s provided in the hut, check out the BMC website https://www.thebmc.co.uk/don-whillans-memorial-hut
I can go. But have to work Friday Morning so will drive up afterwards. Anyone who wants a lift let me know. Warning i snore so happy to sleep outside, will supply ear plugs etc.
Also excellent cook, I can cook any boil in the bag dish and also potato waffles (if a toaster is available).
I am driving up Thursday morning so if any one wishes to grab a lift from me (Fareham start) let me know. I can fit 2 other people and gear in my car
I am now driving up Thursday morning with Jim and Matt, hope to arrive about 1 pm?
