  • GUIDED WALKS and EVENTS SPRING 2019 (March-May)
    GUIDED WALKS & EVENTS SPRING 2019 Cymdeithas Parc Bannau Brycheiniog Brecon Beacons Park Society www.breconbeaconsparksociety.org GUIDED WALKS AND EVENTS SPRING 2019 (March-May) Most of these walks go into the hills. Participants are reminded that the following gear must be taken. Walking boots, rucksack, hats, gloves, warm clothing (not jeans), spare fleece, water and a hot drink, lunch, extra food and of course waterproof jackets and trousers. A whistle and a head torch (with spare batteries) should be carried, particularly during the winter months, and a hi- visibility garment would be very useful in case of poor visibility. Participants must satisfy themselves that the walk is suitable for their abilities. You can take advice by ringing the walk leader whose telephone number is given. No liability will be accepted for loss or injury that occurs because of taking part. An adult must accompany young people (under 18). MOST OF THESE WALKS ARE FOR EXPERIENCED WALKERS - IF YOU’RE NOT SURE OF YOUR ABILITY WHY NOT START OFF WITH A MODERATE WALK TO FIND OUT? Please check the guided walks programme on the website for planned cancellations and changes to walks. Leaders may change or cancel the advertised route at their discretion due to adverse weather conditions or other problems on the day. You are strongly advised to check the Mountain weather forecast for the Brecon Beacons National Park before setting out for walks, on the Met Office website: www.metoffice.gov.uk. Finish times are approximate. Strenuous walks require fitness and stamina to cope with several steep climbs and/or cover a good distance at a steady pace.

    17th Programme – Swansea Ramblers We offer short & long walks all year around and welcome new walkers to try a walk with us. 1 Front Cover Photograph: Table Mountain with view of Sugar Loaf v14 2 Swansea Ramblers’ membership benefits & events We have lots of walks and other events during the year so we thought you may like to see at a glance the sort of things you can do as a member of Swansea Ramblers: Programme of walks: We have long, medium & short walks to suit most tastes. The summer programme runs from April to September and the winter programme covers October to March. The programme is emailed & posted to members. Should you require an additional programme, this can be printed by going to our website. Evening walks: These are about 2-3 miles and we normally provide these in the summer. Monday Short walks: We also provide occasional 2-3 mile daytime walks as an introduction to walking, usually on a Monday. Saturday walks: We have a Saturday walk every week that is no more than 6 miles in length and these are a great way to begin exploring the countryside. Occasionally, in addition to the shorter walk, we may also provide a longer walk. Sunday walks: These alternate every other week between longer, harder walking for the more experienced walker and a medium walk which offers the next step up from the Saturday walks. Weekday walks: These take place on different days and can vary in length. Most are published in advance but we also have extra weekday walks at short notice.

In order for them to be progressed into working project descriptions they need to be researched in detail with reference to a well presented bibliography and reference list. I am most willing to guide individual students / work teams on the appropriate location or detail/ methodology in these studies and on appropriate starting points in the literature. It will also be neccessary that the project is outlined in the appropriate format in the student’s own words, according to the academic and Health & Safety requirements set down by the Departmental Dissertation Tutor and Subject Field Chair. Students will also need to approach an appropriate member of departmental staff to act as a formal advisor. Whilst this is crucially necessary I remain very wiling to offer guidance in all contexts for the studies proposed herein: The dissertation themes here are mostly in the field of Physical Geography and many are located in the Brecon Beacon’s National Park. Broadly they are glaciological or cave oriented with climate change leanings:- 1.

Many thanks again to all those that have contributed articles for this issue which are many and varied, and something for everyone. In her BIS update, Janet has mentioned important new agreements with the Environment Agency and Dwr Cymru Welsh Water for BIS to supply biodiversity data information, which is good news for the wildlife we all want to protect. Amphibian, mammal, dragonfly and moth re- corders have all supplied news updates as well as one for the Wildlife Sites Project. Despite all our efforts in recording, we include in this issue a call for more butterfly records for Brecknockshire, and a request for a new Dragonfly Recorder for Montgomeryshire! If you can help with either of these, please get in touch. With summer nearly here, we are all hopefully starting to get out into the field and do more recording, so don’t forget our three vice-county BIS Field Recorder’s Days this June, July and August (see page 20).
