Hello. I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Iain McIntyre and I am the Coordinator for the Mountain Training Association's newest region, Yorkshire.

Some of you may be members of the MTA, some of you may have achieved one of the MT awards but have never considered joining the MTA, others may be considering signing up to an award. The MTA can offer something for all of you.

The summer is a busy time for us all but we are hoping to hold a launch event for the new Yorkshire region on the 21-23 September. I will be keeping you all updated and will be emailing your club contacts directly to catch those not on FB but please spread the word; new members are always welcome.

Have fun, stay safe.
Iain. ...

Last weekend we linked up with Sheffield Mountaineering for a fun weekend at The Roaches.

Arriving Friday at Homestead Farm we had a chilled out evening with a BBQ.

Saturday we headed for the rocks and got some great climbs in including the classic roof crack "the sloth", led by Matt. When we could stand the heat no more we took a drive to the mermaids pool. As we arried we were flagged down by a couple who alerted us to a moor fire just starting, they didnt have a phone so asked us to call the firebrigade. Swim cut short, as the fire was progressing quickly, we went for a pub tea. Some of us headed back to the rocks for a bit more climbing now the heat had died down.

Sunday was spent back at the rocks in a more shaded area ticking off the starred climbs into the evening, before packing up and heading home.

Awesome weekend, thanks Matt for organising and everyone for making it a success. We look forward to our next joint meet at stanage on the 29th July. ...
