Mercian Mountaineering Club

Morning Mercians!

Only a few weeks until the next meet. I hope you have all recovered from Vijay's excellent birthday celebrations and are raring to go.

This time we will head to the Peaks. I'm confident it will be glorious sunshine by then, perfect for a spot of climbing, hiking of biking around Stanage Edge and Hathersage.

Campsite is North Lees - https://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/visitin ... thlees[url][/url]

Book online, £7.50 pppn. I'm off to visit a baby in Nottingham on Saturday but I'll come and join you for Sat night/Sunday.

I’m good for this.

Please sign Geoff up, weather dependent!

I'll provisionally put my name down for this! But will confirm early on next week

I would be up for this, although I might just do one day...

I have to sort my bike out first as I am heading to the Alps the weekend after and it depends how I get on with maintenance !

Counties luck Fabian.
Count me in weather permitting.

Please sign up Jonathan Tye

If there is climbers and climbing weather on the sunday, I'll head over for the day.

If your camping it would be best to get booked early, I think that site fills up fairly quick. Pindale farm in Hope is a good back up.

Cool, thanks for the tips Adam! Forecast looking decent at the moment.

Has anyone booked camping yet?

Unless i am being thick, it appears that you can't book friday to sunday. Although you can book thur-sunday or sat-sunday!?

I get some message about starting on a dark green day

I haven't Fabian. But that seems really odd. I can probably give them a call after 10 am tomorrow morning and ask?

Hi All,

I,m interested weather permitting ideally staying Thursday night
until Sunday pm....had the same problem with the Web site -would not let me book 3 nights.
Some clarification would be appreciated.

Murray

I am probably just going to head up Saturday afternoon - as I have some errands to run on Saturday.


But it would be nice to know what campsite to head for!

Afternoon All

I have made a couple of phone calls and North lees campsite is fully booked on Saturday.

In addition Pindale farm is fully booked out by schools this weekend.

Could anyone who know the area recommend an additional campsite?

Thanks

Harry

Hi

I have found this campsite below. It is close to North Lees. Although, I can't seem to find out a price.

I will give them a call in a few mins and see if they have space.

Thanks

Harry
