In 1995 the Northumbrian Mountaineering Club celebrated the 50th anniversary of its foundation on the 31st May 1945, itself a date some 46 years after the first recorded rock climb in Northumberland.
The inaugural NMC meet was at Crag Lough on the 23rd June 1945; a fact commemorated on 23rd June 1995 with a club meet, and this photograph.
