    We came across the bubbling gas pool on our Thursday walk on 1st February. It is perhaps surprising that the leak has not been closed yet. There must be a lot of gas being wasted. Andy

    We have decided to cancel our walk planned for tomorrow
    (8th Feb 2024) in view of the Yellow and Amber warnings of
    snow for the Peak District, and forecast travel disruption.
    Instead we will lead the walk on Leap Day (29th February).

    There’s an interesting video about the sighting towers and the 4-mile water tunnel from Ladybower to Rivelin which needed them for its construction.

    At present all the Meet Reports are collected in the Meet Reports section of the website
    http://castlemountaineering.com/category/meet-reports/
    Of course this will no longer be the case if it becomes a static site as proposed in Option 2.

    Yes the 272 bus service along the Hope Valley is rubbish at the moment. There have been no end of complaints on the Bradwell Facebook page (I am told).

    As Dave is walking the Ughill Moors on 2 November, we have
    decided to change our walk on 9 November, so we are not
    covering the same ground on two consecutive Thursdays.
    Park on the road out of Castleton towards Winnats and
    meet 11:00am near the junction with the old Mam Tor road
    SK 145 829. We will walk up past Treak Cliff Cavern to
    Winnats Head and continue to the Limestone Way and down to
    Bradwell, returning through the cement works. Distance a
    bit over 7 miles.

    We recced the walk today and decided to modify it a bit. We
    won’t be going up Dovestones Clough on account of the
    shoulder-high (wet) bracken overhanging the path, which
    detracted somewhat from the enjoyment. The starting time,
    starting place and distance are unchanged and we will still
    be going over Back Tor and Lost Lad.

    John, There are never attachments to the notification emails. They just include the text and a link which when you click it goes to the message board message. This will have any the attachments at the bottom of the message. Andy
