There is a Guide to editing the website in the Documents section of the Members area.

Andy SmithKeymasterSteve W led a great Edale Skyline (the opposite way round) on 17th April 2016. See report:
Andy SmithKeymasterWe 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
Andy SmithKeymasterWe 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).
Andy & Rosy.Andy SmithKeymasterThere’s an interesting video about the sighting towers and the 4-mile water tunnel from Ladybower to Rivelin which needed them for its construction.

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).

Andy SmithKeymasterAs 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.
Andy & RosyAndy SmithKeymasterWe 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.
