Climbing-grants-2015

This year the Alpine Club is supporting seven expeditions to the Greater Ranges with grants from its Climbing Fund.

The aim of these grants is to support AC members on expeditions that have an exploratory element or are attempting a new or unique project. Preference is generally given to expeditions comprising students and younger members, and to those woh have not previously been awarded a grant.

Alpine Club T-Shirts

The AC T-shirts are great to wear. They come in unisex seize S / M / L and are made from 'technical' wicking fabric.

The colour is charcoal and they are manufactured by Fruit of the Loom of high quality standard.

Guidebooks

The AC has published comprehensive English language guidebooks covering popular regions of the Alps. These are listed below and are all available for purchase from the Club except for The 4000m Peaks of the Alps which is available from Cordee

Users must use their own judgment on how this affects the feasibility or safety of any particular route or approach.
