The weather was a bit mixed today, well it was a typical British Summers Day with Showers one second followed by scorching sun the next!
This morning we headed up onto Stickle Barn for a spot of climbing and we managed to get 3 routes in and an Abseil amongst the short showers.
After lunch we kitted up and got into Stickle Ghyll for a really fun Ghyll Scrambling Session. Everyone, especially the kids, did really well tackling all the hard bits we could do on a day when the water was really powerful!

A magnificent day today running a Langdale Activity Day.
After meeting outside the Stickle Barn Pun in Langdale, we got our rock climbing kit together and made our way up to the Stickle Barn Crag. After sorting out the top ropes the Emily, Sam and Andrew were taught how to 'tie-in' and belay before cracking on with some climbing. Everyone climbed very well, even when they did a route that was much harder than the first, and in the wet! The showers were short and separated by some glorious sunshine, British summer working its magic! After a couple of climbs the group enjoyed an abseil down the face of the crag.
After a spot of lunch back down in the car park we got our Ghyll scrambling kit on and headed for Stickle Ghyll. Due to the recent rainfall the ghyll was high which meant it was going to be great fun! Once again the group did really well and had loads of fun climbing the waterfalls, jumping in the pools and boulder hopping!

An awesome day down in Langdale today running one of our action packed Activity Days.
The morning saw us walk up to Stickle Barn Crag for a few hours of Rock Climbing. After getting the harnesses and helmets on, and setting up the top rope we started on the far left of the crag. The group was mixed between a couple who did not climb, and a couple who climb indoors but were yet to venture outside. Everyone tackled the first climb very well, and all anxiety was soon climbed away.
After a slight adjustment of the rigging we then climbed another slightly harder route. After more very impressive climbing we all went to the top of the crag for a spot of abseiling. This was a new experience for almost everyone, but everyone did really well!
Just as we were packing up it started to rain, which was a good thing as it would put a bit more water in the Ghyll!
At 2pm we got kitted up into our Ghyll Scrambling gear and headed for Stickle Ghyll, after a quick briefing we got into the Ghyll. The scramble consisted of boulder hopping, traversing walls and climbing up waterfalls. Everyone had an amazing time throughout the session as the pictures show!

A good morning session Rock Climbing on Wodens Face today, although the weather had been a little damp the rain stopped by the time we met up at the Bowderstone car park. The rock face was a little damp so we kept to the easy routes on the left hand side of the crag and spent an enjoyable morning on the crag.
