Generally the semiformal meet and greet happens about 8.30 am Saturday morning over breakfast at the campsite - commandeered nearest communal picnic table to it.
Catani campsite 31 is our location this year.
Meet & greet is partially offset by whoever gathers on Friday night at the campsite!

The agenda for the day is determined by the number of participants involved and their mix of skill / experience / gear and expectations.
Similar on the Sunday morning... though this can also be predetermined somewhat on the Saturday.

Some experienced folk commit to the North Wall with an agenda, while others that may have no, or minimal aid climbing experience, get basic shared experience tutoring during the breakfast session, then head off to suitable sites to practice what was preached!

The agenda is flexible to cater for all levels of ability and it’s a bit of a lottery that depends on the mix of attendees.

I usually accompany the less experienced to loan gear and give tips on its use if required.

At least two of this years attendees have been to previous Aidfests, so are no doubt looking to extend their experience and flesh out their bag of tricks further.

Buffalo lends itself to climbing in small groups because the locations chosen often have a good variety of grade options in close proximity which lends itself to a ‘festival’ atmosphere.
