Little climbing get-together

[RobArb]

My mate can't make it Rob, so its just little ole me:thumbup:

[RobRainford]

No worries matey.

 

Ray could just borrow one of ours while he has a try climb. Set up a nice self tending prussic or blakes and he should be good to go.

thanks for that mate i havent got climbing gear, im a 32 waist if that helps any. lol i havent got anything yet , but im picking my boots trousers gloves and helmet up tomorrow .... yippeeeeee , an its not even my birthday !!!

[RobRainford]

You should be fine then. I'm a 32 waist.

 

I think these oaks will need deadwooding so any bits you can boot out you may aswell. I'll be taking my silky up to clear out any massive bits that may get in the way. Plus to clear a zipline path!

Ill be arriving back that day to Manchester from NY, might be too tired and bored of trees to attend though Have fun in the 'sun'

[RobArb]

any more takers on this?

[RobRainford]

I've confirmed that a small fire for food purposes will be ok. So feel free to bring that and I'll bring some logs down to leave on the fire.

 

I'm looking forward to it

if your in a car then its best to leave it at the yard, plenty space to leave it. Then i will just bring your stuff down in the truck. aim for around 10.30-11, robarb is getting here for half 10

 

I went down today in my truck, its all grass but looks like tis gonna be a bit muddy, with me having no weight on the back wheels i made good mess of the wet bits. Found a potential zipline tree that will pass over the lake, but getting the rope to the other side of the lake is a problem! its a fair distance!

 

I counted maybe 10 good trees, mainly oaks, and a sycamore or two. took some pics but left memory card at the other halfs. so no teaser pics.

 

weve got a field of spuds we can pilcher from if needs be.

 

can i confirm these names? so i know how many to grab refreshments for!
