| Sept 29 - Sat | Rods Walk at Ullswater. Rods last Wainwright was The Nab above Martindale, see here, so this walk in Rods memory is based on that area. The plan is to book a boat trip on the Ullswater Steamer for members, leaving Glenridding for Howtown mid-morning and returning around 5 pm and will be free to members (courtesy of Rod's legacy).
There will be a number of options for walks of all grades (or you can just please yourself). Bring a picnic.
Ferry tickets need to be booked in advance so if you are interested in coming along you must let a member of the social sub-committee know by 31st May. |
