    Meet at the main car park by Edale station GR:- 124854 for a 9am start.
    The course content will include the following:-
    Maps and features
    Route planning
    Pacing
    Micro navigation
    Can participants please bring the Dark Peak OL1 map, a pen, a compass and your mobile phone.
    We are also planning a second Navigation day on the 25th November so please note this date if
    you wish to participate.
    So far we have 5 members attending the first course – more are welcome – text me direct on 07468 697805
    if you wish to join us for the 21/10 date plus can you also text direct if you wish to be with us on the 25th November.
    I appreciate the 2nd date clashes with a planned walk but unfortunately this cannot be avoided.

    Please note we will now meet at Edale’s main car park, next to the station, at 8.30am to ensure
    we get car parking spaces.
    Our intention is to start by measuring our pacing for 100 metres followed by an indoor session in the Penny Pot cafe covering grid references, route planning etc.
    Don’t forget to bring the Dark Peak 1/25,000 map number OL1 plus compass, a pen and your phone.
    Look forward to seeing you on the day.
    Pete & Gordon
