BMC Alpine Meet blog

Posted by Jon Garside on 07/08/2007

Find out what's going on during this year's BMC Alpine Meet by reading the Alpine Meet blog.

John Simpson, the BMC volunteer in Saas Grund, is writing a blog about the meet. This is the second year that John has managed the meet for the BMC, and this time he's accompanied by climbing partner Ed Allaway.

In between climbing, barbecuing and getting used to foreign keyboards, John and Ed will be keeping us updated on the goings on over the next two weeks.
