Whether it is climbing at Tremadog or yomping across the roughest Rhinogs SMC members always have a good time. We have had a weekend based near Machynlleth which enabled a gentle coast walk as well as climbing on the Barmouth slabs. Most recently we were at our hut near Deiniolen for the August Bank Holiday. After weeks of dry weather it was wettish and prompted a call for Lockwood's chimney which 7 people had a go at but on finding it far too slippery for big boots beat a retreat. It dried up enough on both Saturday and Sunday evenings for a BBQ and many rounds of Jenga.

It is a while since anyone posted photos showing what we have been up to…..a damp week in Killarney in May and a scorcher in the Picos de Europa at the end of June/ early July. As well as going abroad we have been to Derbyshire to sample gritstone and Pembrokeshire for the limestone at St Govan’s I will leave you to decide which photo is which location!

Last weekend was when 14 club members carried out some maintenance on our hut, Clwt y Bel, which is near Deiniolen. One job was to replace some rusty bolts on the common room roof…….and Chris spent a whole day ‘frying’ in the best weather day of the year so far. Maintenance is only carried out on the Saturday so on Sunday some took advantage of the weather to head for Atlantic slabs and some to Ogwen.
The hut sleeps 18 and can be booked by like minded groups…check it out on our website www.shrewsburymc.com
