Well the weekend is nearly upon us and there is only one real place to be and that is the Tremadog Festival, organised by local BMC representative Mike Raine with the support of the BMC. The concept of the festival is to come and climb tooled up with a piece of gardening garden equipment, and clean one route of fresh shoots of bramble’s, dandelions and ivy, and you will be instantly part of the festival. Which will entitle you to one raffle ticket, some of the free local beer and a great time.
The event has been support by many local companies Joe browns, V12, Ground Up, DMM, Climber Club, Pete Eats and the Local Pub the Brodnant Arms.
On the saturday night just after you have had another ale to help your heckling skills, local mountain guide and Plas Y Brenin instructor Tim Neil, possibly the most psyched climber in the world will give a multimedia show about his recent month long stay in Patagonia where he climbed Five (yes five) routes!
I would say I look forward to see you there, but unless I can convince my basic climbing course that cleaning a crag is the best thing for them, then I will have to be working!
