Well it’s been another month of local lockdown rambles but the end is in sight and with a bit of luck we will be back out and about on club trips in the coming months! For now, here is a taste of AMC during February – some cycling, climbing, reading, riding, zooming, and a few […]

It is a difficult time for all of us but it is great to see members sticking on their wellingtons and making the most of their local surroundings! Hopefully we will be able to get back out in the mountains and on the rock soon. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this months ‘Month […]

Night Orienteering
Thanks to all who joined us for the orienteering friendly at Ashton Court last Thursday. I think Alastair’s GPS trace sums up the difficulty of finding the markers:) 17 people in all took part, all staggered in pairs or solo to comply with outdoor exercise rules. The format was simple, 2 hrs to find as […]

We are obviously limited by the whatever local and national restrictions apply but throughout the summer of 2020, club members were organising climbing partners through the forum and posting about trips they were planning. The current restrictions mean that we can’t organise whole-club […]
