December's Activites



Well, 2011 is almost at an end now, but what a great year it has been - with plenty of trips abroad climbing, deep water soloing and kayaking, plus a reasonable amount of coaching and leadership courses being run. December was a random month though, starting with a long weekend in Lille visiting some long lost French friends. We had a lovely few days visiting the sights, eating lots of lovely French cuisine, and catching up on old times. The rest of the month was filled with a mixture of coaching on the River Dart, kayaking the Upper Dart for fun, climbing at the climbing wall, and even a few DWS sessions at Berry Head in lovely sunny conditions (including a session on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!). Currently I am in the process of building my own bouldering cave, with the aim of getting super-strong for next year's DWS season. With plenty of new DWS projects and routes on my list, I'm really looking forward to giving them a crack in 2012. Can't wait! I also have a few trips planned for the New Year, so I have plenty to look forward to. For now though, I'm welcoming in the New Year and looking forward to kayaking the Upper Dart on the 1st January. 
Happy New Year to everyone, and all the best for 2012!!! :D
