    So as to transport,
    (1) it looks as though we will be obliged to take several cars for different reasons. I was wondering if Jenny might travel with Bella and Rowan to save one vehicle ?
    (2) The farmer is apparently wary of poor access behaviour, so needless to say we must make sure we close the gate, park neatly clear of the track, and not leave any outdoor rubbish.
    (3) The hut is at GR 229177 and is marked “Climbing Hut” on map OL4
    (4) The roads are narrow and the few miles from Portinscale to Little Town will likely add 20 minutes to your journey.
    (5) At LittleTown, BE CAREFUL NOT TO TAKE THE FIRST GATE at 234195. The correct gate is 100m further on at 233194 and this gate has FIVE bars. I speak from experience !! I have done my best with some pictures. The track to the hut is driveable slowly with care.

    Dave, I might join you on the Friday but will obviously depend on weather nearer the time.
    Jenny…. I can’t offer a lift unfortunately because of (a) possibly going up Friday morning and (b) I need to leave early on Sunday morning.

    Activities will clearly depend on the weather, but if it’s dry (ish) then [yet another] group ascent of Pinnacle Ridge on St Sunday crag might be an idea: the usual options after that are Helvellyn and down Striding, or turn left to Fairfield and have a peep in Priests Hole cave.

    I will leave York as usual about 4.30 so will be climbing by about 5.45.
    As discussed last week, if you ask at the desk for York MC they will let you come in and find us for signing-in
    See ya there

    OK, grand. Simons Seat was a first idea. Might be worth studying latest forecasts tomorrow. I’ll be in touch about transport / RV
