Join the Peak Area team and BMC President Dominic Oughton for a relaxed and friendly evening with fellow climbers, hill walkers and mountaineers from across the Peak District. Whether you're a regular or brand new, it's a chance to catch up with old friends, meet new ones and chat all things BMC.

The Peak Area are delighted to welcome BMC President Dominic Oughton, who will be sharing his experiences of completing 'Hard Rock'.

Hard Rock is a famous collection of great climbs from the 'Hard Rock' book by Ken Wilson (1974), covering routes from all over the UK, including 'the Scoop' on Strone Ulladale.

Weather permitting, we plan to meet for a social climb with Dom at the popular end of Stanage before the meeting, so come along for a climb and a chat from 14.00 or you may prefer to join us on a social walk, for more info on the walk and to sign up go to Eventbrite.
