WHAT: An informal meeting for all those potentially interested in going to Scotland on our annual winter mountaineering trip, to find out more about it. We will go over what the trip entails, look at some photos, talk about gear requirements and answer peoples questions.
This is not the official sign-up, but is very much worth attending if you are thinking of going.
WHEN: Thursday 15th November @ 1800
WHERE: THE MUNROW LECTURE THEATRE (same as EGM) - please note location has been changed.Please post below if you are planning on coming.
This will be followed by a talk called Xtreme Everest, about climbing and medical research above 8000.
