Blaen y Nant Weekend Trip

LUMC will be running a mixed trip on the weekend of the 4th-6th March. We will be going to Blaen y Nant a cosy hut in Snowdonia close to both hiking and climbing. 

Climbing wise the plan is to go sport climbing and potentially bouldering, although if the weather is bad, we will be joining the hiking.

There will be 10 walking tickets available and 15 climbing tickets available. If youre not sure, choose the "(Climbing or Hiking)" ticket and you can decide on the day.

Transport will be provided to and from the hut, along with a communal breakfast (Saturday and Sunday) and an evening meal on Saturday. 

On Friday evening, the pick-up locations and times will be:
Asda Smithdown (car park near petrol station) 6:00pm
Campus (sports centre car park near the Sphinx) 6:20pm

We will be stopping at a supermarket on the way for people to buy lunches, snacks, and drinks. If you have any food allergies or dietary requirements, please let a leader or organiser know!

•    Sleeping bag
