 With only a month to go until the Keswick Mountain Festival, we've picked the lucky OMers who'll be wandering the Borrowdale fells with Alan Hinkes.
Now that Alan's completed the 8000ers he's decided to take up the challenge of leading guided walks - well, one of them anyway. It takes place on Friday 18th May and the OM members who'll be going along are:
Simon Sumner
Graham Lovatt
Kate Whiffing
John Buckle
Barry Smith
The prize also includes a launch trip across Derwentwater, a free Berghaus Tech T-shirt, and a poster signed by Alan. Have a good day!
If you weren't in luck this time around, there's plenty more going on at the festival, including talks from Simon Yates, Andy Cave, Cameron McNeish, and Sir Chris Bonington, a chance to have a shot at the Lakeland version of the 3000s, and even a personal shopping service, amongst other things.
Latest news of the festival is available on the Keswick Mountain Festival website.
There's also an expanding stash of free gear waiting to be won on the OM competition page - don't forget to review your winnings once you've worn them! - and an events calendar to let you know which outdoor festivals, film screenings and the like are hovering on the horizon.
