Tickets go live at 9pm on the Tuesday the 10th

Hello everyone, we'll shortly be off on the first LUMC trip of the year! We're going bouldering to one of the many local venues (we'll decide which closer to the date, forecast dependant),  open to all abilities and experience levels. Bouldering is climbing short routes using foam pads rather than ropes to protect a fall, and it's a really accessible way to try outdoor rock climbing!.We'll be heading over in the morning and then heading home from early to late afternoon.

Its really easy to go and do this on your own once you know what your doing; you'll be borrowing club pads and heading off to our local favourites WIndy Clough or Thorn Crag before you know it!

We'll be heading to a local crag, most likely Brownstones or maybe Newbiggin, depending on the forecast on the day. These are both crags with less than 15 minute walk ins but could be over uneven ground and on moderate gradients. There are a wide range of problems of various styles and difficulties, with good landings.

We'll be meeting at University House, 9am Saturday. University House is located right next to the bowland porters or chaiplancy and can be found by walking straight from the library front entrance through two sets of double doors. Alternatively if my directions are crap, here is a pin. 

Kit
You will need:

• Waterproof Coat and lots of Layers
• Plenty of Food and Water for the day (Take more than you think)
• Appropriate footwear for walking across rough terrain
• Climbing Shoes (If you don't have any, that's fine! Just put so on the form when you buy your ticket and we will let you borrow some)

If you happen to own a bouldering mat, please bring it along! You may want to let us know beforehand if you live in town so we can pick it up.

We aim to make all of our trips fully accessible so we've included a form so you can tell us about any requirements or details you would like to share. Only the exec and appropriate group leaders will see this information. If you want to ask any questions or only message a specific exec member we would also encourage you to do so. There are no toilet facillites at the crag.

Get flipping mega psyched!!!!

Any questions chuck Matt a message
