News and views in Cymru Wales newsletter

Posted by Tony Ryan on 16/01/2015
Safety on Snowdon – can we do anything, should we do anything?

There’s a new look to the area newsletter. Alongside the usual news on access, conservation and more general issues of interest to BMC members, future issues will include opinion pieces to stir debate prior to upcoming local area meetings.

The January 2015 issue of the newsletter has thoughts on fixed gear on traditional sea cliffs and some strong opinions on the recent issues affecting “Mt” Snowdon. There’s also news about the 2015 Llanberis Mountain Film Festival, to be held in early March, and a progress report on the North Wales Youth Climbing Academy.

The BMC South Wales meeting is on Tuesday 3 February, starting at 7.30pm, at Up and Under, Cardiff.

Up and Under will be providing discount shopping before the meeting for BMC members. There will also be a talk at the end of the meeting on the latest gear available for 2015.
