Paul Braithwaite Talk Night

Paul Braithwaite, famous Everest climber, will be delivering a presentation on Friday 18th March, starting at 7.30pm at Millgates Arts Centre, Delph, Saddleworth, Oldham.

For anyone who doesn't know, Paul (also known as Tut), was a member of Chris Bonningtons successfull 1975 'Everest the Hard Way' expedition to conquer a new route up to the summit of Everest. Paul, along with Nick Estcourt, solved the problem of the the highly technical and difficult 'Rock Band' which allowed the team to make a successfull summit attempt. In addition Paul holds many other first ascents to his name both in the UK and around the world.

This will be rare opportunity to listen to Paul, who normarly keeps a low-profile, and to what I'm sure will be a fascinating presentation.

Further details of obtaining tickets can be made by contacting Mountain Feet (Oldham). http://www.mountainfeet.co.uk/

This event is to raise money for the charity Help for Heroes.

Welcome

Welcome to the Adventure Network blog. The objective of this site is to allow people to share their adventures, big or small, with others and offer ideas and inspiration to like minded individuals.

Whilst most people do not have the opportunity to undertake large scale sponsored expeditions there are many who regularly seek adventure whether it be through small scale micro-adventures or longer trips but which don't quite fall into the 'Expedition' category. I will try to keep people updated with information that will hopefully provide ideas and inspiration so that people can plan and undertake their own adventres. I'm rather new at this so please bear with me.
