Dartmoor meet – open for booking – don’t forget your waterproofs !

The Climbing:

Dartmoor is sprinkled with impressive Tor’s amongst it’s beautiful scenery. There are so many to choose from. And of course, where we are staying is not far from the popular DewerStone.

There is a range of options for different grades. It’s very much a trad area, but if you haven’t done trad before, don’t worry, you are very welcome. In each area there is such a range to choose from so if you are an experienced climber, there will be fun routes and people to pair up with. The same goes for the less experienced climbers. The crags are walk in, and usually you can walk/scramble off the top so suitable for beginners.

Here is some useful info on the area that hasn’t made it into the guide books yet: http://www.javu.co.uk/Climbing/Guides/ 

there’s a good new boulder wall in plymouth to check out if the sky falls on our heads 🙂

We have booked one of the 10 bed dorms in dewerstone cottage, we decided not to book the whole cottage after the initial negative reception the meet got on facebook, and figured that only a small number of “brave” climbers might be interested.

Food

The meet includes Food for Saturday night and of course lashings of porridge. As always, any helping hands are welcome for the cooking!
