Walk Report
Despite the poor weather forecast, 9 members braved the damp breezy conditions to do this 12 mile circular walk for the walk leaders house. Tom managing to do 15 miles by walking to start and back home again at the end. We were fortunate that the route was mainly in the shelter of the forest and there were shortcuts available, if needed. Walking in bad weather was a good experience and will give members confidence in their clothing and equipment. A great day out when other lesser mortals were hiding indoors ;-)Other Files
