  • My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership Number: 3812 First Fell Climbed
    My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership number: 3812 First fell climbed: Coniston Old Man, 6 April 2003 Last fell climbed: Great End, 14 October 2019 I was a bit of a late-comer to the Lakes. My first visit was with my family when I was 15. We rented a cottage in Grange for a week at Easter. Despite my parents’ ambitious attempts to cajole my sister Cath and me up Scafell Pike and Helvellyn, the weather turned us back each time. I remember reaching Sty Head and the wind being so strong my Mum was blown over. My sister, 18 at the time, eventually just sat down in the middle of marshy ground somewhere below the Langdale Pikes and refused to walk any further. I didn’t return then until I was 28. It was my Dad’s 60th and we took a cottage in Coniston in April 2003. The Old Man of Coniston became my first summit, and I also managed to get up Helvellyn via Striding Edge with Cath and my brother-in-law Dave. Clambering along the edge and up on to the still snow-capped summit was thrilling. A love of the Lakes, and in particular reaching and walking on high ground, was finally born. Visits to the Lakes became more regular after that, but often only for a week a year as work and other commitments limited opportunities. A number of favourites established themselves: the Langdale Pikes; Lingmoor Fell; Catbells and Wansfell among them. I gradually became more ambitious in the peaks I was willing to take on.

  • Billy Bland Attempt Special
    A Month Of Meltham AC Racing Billy Bland Challenge Special June 2015 The Challenge The plan was fairly simple – the Bob Graham Round, split into 5 legs and run by pairs. It’s called the ‘Billy Bland Challenge’, and simply put you’re trying to beat one man’s BGR time as relay of 5 pairs; however, what a man – Billy’s time of 13 hours and 53 minutes from 1982 is still the individual record, and no team of relay runners have even come within half an hour of it – we would target 24 hours… Although a small club, we have some decent Fell Runners, some very experienced runners and loads of enthusiasm. The plan was talked through with Andy Lang and before we knew it, a poster went up on the noticeboard and an open meeting planned. The anticipated enthusiasm was realised and even when we started talking numbers (66 miles, 42 peaks, 28,000 feet of ascent, 24 hours of running) everyone seemed to get even more excited. Names were taken, Legs were allocated and recce’s were planned. Over the following 10 months or so we lost a few runners to injury and illness (notably Giles Bailey, Christian Lloyd and Alice Buttle), and had one major re-allocation of Legs, with Mark Hoath being drafted at the 11th hour. Recce’s were completed up to 10 days before the day and all eyes were on the weather, which was looking favourable. A campsite was booked, final preparations completed, a Tracker hired and a symbolic baton was purchased so that club members could follow our heroic progress (and we could keep an eye on where our runners were going….) Leg 1 – Keswick to Threlkeld – Andy Lang and Mark Hoath (Via Skiddaw, Great Calva, Blencartha) Finally the moment arrived – we were gathered outside Moot Hall in Keswick at 11.30pm.

  • Bob Graham Detailed Notes
    Bob Graham Detailed Notes These notes are intended to provide a short summary of the best line to take in terms of time and effort. The notes are meant to be read in conjunction with the OS Explorer OL series of maps:- OL4, OL5, OL6 & OL7. However there is a new (as of 2005) map at 1:40,000 scale of the whole Lake District on one sheet. The map is produced by the BMC in association with Harveys maps . The map is printed on plastic so it is tear resistant and completely waterproof! Someone at the BMC must have known about the Bob Graham Round as, although the main map finishes just to the north of Skiddaw, Great Calva appears on an “insert” on the back. Grid references are in parentheses and are preceded with GR: (GR123456). Summits are not generally given grid references in these notes. Also some spellings may be different to those in common use: particularly the use of the correct “gill” as opposed to the pretentious “ghyll” introduced by Wordsworth and Southey. Bearings are also in parentheses but are preceded by MB-: ( MB-256 ). All bearings are magnetic rather than grid. The magnetic variation is taken as 3 degrees. If anyone has any corrections or additions to make to these notes then please send them in. There are several points on the round where there are alternative routes. These are indicated by the word (alternative) in the text. Hold your mouse over the word to see the variation. Section Times The table below shows expected times for each section for a number of schedules.

  • Pillar Rock and Neighbouring Climbs
    129 PILLAR ROCK AND NEIGHBOURING CLIMBS. BY H. M. KELLY. TABLE OF CONTENTS. PAGE I. Historical 130 II. The Approaches 133 ill. Topographical 136 IV. The Climbs:— Pillar Rock 141 West Cove 168 Great Doup 170 Hind Cove 170 Scoat Fell 172 Mosedale 173 Overbeck 177 Buckbarrow 179 Crag Fell 181 V. Classified List of Climbs 182 PREFATORY NOTE. It has been my endeavour to make the Guide as accurate as possible, and with this in view it was decided that all the descriptions should be first hand ; which, of course, involved the going over of each climb personally. It is of some con­ siderable satisfaction to myself, and those who helped me in the work, that this high aim has been carried out, except as where indicated, e.g. MaUory's Climb, and even here much time was spent in trying to locate the route. 130 THE FELL AND ROCK CLIMBING CLUB JOURNAL. This task was utterly impossible without help ; and I feel very much indebted for the assistance given by Messrs. H. Coates, J. H. Doughty, R. E. W. Pritchard, Morley Wood, and Mrs. Eden-Smith. Pillar Rock is not at one's backdoor ; so many visits to Wasdale were necessary. But this side of the matter was infinitesimal compared with the patience required, and good temper needed, whilst surveying the climbs. One specially remembers, in this connection, five of us spending five hours doing the North West Climb in heavy rain, and the cheeriness displayed by the party under fearsome and depressing circumstances. That day will live in memory—for the leader at least, I fancy—to the end.
