Hobson moor

Good weather and good times had been promised for Hobson Moor, and the crag didn't disappoint. Almost 20 KMC members (full/associate/prospective/canine) plus a few friends from the Rucksack Club (an unofficial splinter group from their Club's Wednesday evening meet) came along for an evening of sunshine, good company, good climbing and a pleasant pint in the Wagon and Horses afterwards.

A wide range of routes were climbed, I am sure to have missed some but there were teams on Pocket Wall VDiff, Epitaph Corner HS, Foghorn Groove VS, Crew's Route VS, Parker's Eliminate HVS, Bring me Sunshine E1, Gideon HVS, Evening Ridge S, The Harp HS, plus some top-rope efforts on Gable End (E5).

Cake was provided by Lucie, not quite enough to go around everyone although I'm not sure if that's because the turnout was so high or because Jim came back for seconds so many times? 

Thanks to everyone for coming and thanks to some of the Hobby old-timers for pointing people at appropriate routes and bringing up multiple seconds. Apologies to anyone I've missed from the list and to those whose surnames I didn't catch.
