MAMMUT CLIMBING CHALLENGE!

The Mammut Climbing Challenge starts January 13th and runs until February 10th

To take part, pick up a score sheet from reception. With your climbing partner, attempt the routes as often as you like, but always ground up.

Once you fall off you must lower to the ground and try again.

You'll get four weeks to have a go at 4 top ropes and 8 lead routes - graded from F5 - F8a.

The routes will be set on the Furnace, Main Wall and CragX vertical wall.

It's free to enter so you've no excuse not to have a go!


PRIZES:

Each week a Mammut 'single' rope will be raffled off using names from the scoresheets.

Overall winners (top male/female, and top U16 male/female) will each win a Mammut rope!

Bouldering Comp - tonight

Despite the weather tonight's bouldering round will take place as planned.

For those unable to get here due to the snow, don't worry it's the best 3 of 4 round so you will still have a chance to make up your score in the New Year. But for those of you who do get here, with reduced numbers of climbers you will have a better chance of winning one of our spot prizes.

The whole Wave has been reset this week, so even if you miss the competition there is lots to have a go at over the weekend.

We are open - Thursday 2nd Dec

Busses are out of hibernation and I have just got into The Foundry.

Main roads are clear of snow, but Mowbray Street is very slusshy so do please take care if you decide to drive.

We are open

Despite being closed this morning The Foundry is now open. Main roads in the City Centre are clear of snow and we hope to be able to stay open as normal this evening.

We are planning to be open tomorrow morning, but please check the blogg before travelling as mother nature may have other ideas.
