A climbing weekend. The university climbing club. About to climb up the East side of Tryfan, in Snowdonia, North Wales. I am sitting second from the left. You see here a mix of professors, lecturers, students and one grandson (of the lady who took the shot!), 11 years old and the best climber of us all! This would have been in early 1978, The club was tiny - maybe a dozen members and it was called the SSEES Mountaineering Club, affiliated to the London University Mountaineering Club (SSEES = The School of Slavonic and Eastern European Studies - now part of University College, London). Great times were had by all, from memory! Originally posted in ipernity 2018.
