See the BMC Local Areas site for more info: http://community.thebmc.co.uk/Event.aspx?id=4447

I can't seem to find an agenda for the meeting?

The agenda will be on the site in the next couple of weeks. 

That should have read the next few days. 

Thanks Mark.

I'm still waiting for some abseil stakes to be placed at Meadfoot, Daddyhole Main & Telegraph Hole. This was discussed at least 5 years ago. The ab off that bush into Daddhole Main is terrifying. Extra ropes required for Meadfoot to reach the trees or 60mts+ to belay. And trying to find that miniscule stake at Telegraph Hole is a mystery. Someone was going to check with the Torbay council and the TCCT, but so far no progress. Can we make any progress on this?

Agenda now on the website, we’ve included “South Devon stakes”, Sean.

Those lovely trees…

Long gone I'm  afraid. Remaining stumps really rotten.

I know they’re long gone Sean. I grew up and learned to climb in Torbaydos so remember the trees and belays long before the conservation/ecological felling. 

I'm sure you mean 'character building', rather than terrifying?
