Roaches (Whillans Memorial Hut aka Rock Hall Cottage)

Date: Friday 9th June 2017 to Saturday 10th June 2017
Venue: Rockhall Cottage, The Roaches,

There is a veritable treasure trove of super-classic climbs of all grades from Diff to the Extreme's to be clambered, including indubitably one of the best VS's in the UK called "Valkyrie" and the mega-classic HVS "Sloth". If you have never been to the Roaches before or seen the Don Whillans Hut you can have a quick cheeky look at both on the following short video, filmed a few years ago which features a couple of numpties clambering up the majestic Valkyrie on a "scorchio" summer evening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I962ezI5-Nk&list=UUkVKguHnrqXx5lAmviy2U8g&index=8

Anyway I can offer 11 places in this veritable "Hobbit's Hole" of a hut and the cost is a bargain £20 per person for the weekend!
