Hi,<br>Our first weekend away to Portland will take place in a couple of weeks. Portland (near Weymouth) is one of the most popular sport climbing spots in the country, and there are lots of routes from the easy to the very hard. This makes it an ideal trip to come on if you're keen to get into outdoor climbing. To come on this trip, you will need to be competant at belaying/tying in. Most of you who've been coming regularly should be at this stage by now.<br>
<br>Only basic details at the moment, but we'll be staying in a scout hut in Weymouth and we'll leave around 17.00 on the Friday and retun late Sunday evening. Theres plenty of pictures/info about Portland Climbing if you do a search on t'internet. The cost is likely to be £25 for the weekend, will confirm this.<br>
<br>Further details will be sent round later this week, probably on Friday, but the sign up is available now, so feel free to put your name down. Also put what gear you need (ie: harness, belay plate, shoes, helmet) and whether you can lead.<br>
<br>All the best<br>Tom<br><br clear="all">SUMC Committee<br><br>--<br>Web: <a href="http://www.sumc.org.uk">http://www.sumc.org.uk</a><br>Forum: <a href="http://www.sumc.org.uk/cragchat">http://www.sumc.org.uk/cragchat</a><br>
