April 2001 Hilbre Island Walk

A walk on the Wirral coast, as the planned climbing venue is still out of bounds.
Photographs by Roger Dyke

Booting up in the car park Heading out over the sands... ...towards the Islands A bit of climbing after all! The lookout post... ...Giving a good view over the Island... ...and the stop for coffee and cake The KMC gang from on high Take all litter home - no bins on the Island! More climbing - Via Ferrata!? The delights of West Kirby A final re-group Tea and cakes at Chez Jones


April 2001 Climbing at Ravendsale

One of the few climbing venues still open in the Peak District. Cold at the crag, but the Meet Leader arranged things so that it did not actually rain until the KMC were in the pub.
Photographs by Roger Dyke

Mike & Joe made a prompt 11.00 start on Medusa Duncan zipped up Gymnic To the admiration of a cold spectator gallery Followed by Sheena, sporting her hat with the special peak for climbing overhangs To be lowered off by a passing Eskimo Duncan cleared the spectator gallery by climbing the crack & loose blocks above it Followed again by Sheena Roger and Neville decided they would walk to Litton Mill While Mike checked the progress of the replacement ash on Ash Crack And the answer to Joe's Pub Quiz Question is that the pretty little pink flower is Butterbur [Petasites Hybridus] and is indeed responsible for the metre-wide rhubarb leaves later in the year.
