These combine with shallow soil cover, shakeholes, potholes and caves to form classic karst landscape. • Panoramic views across the southern dales and southern dales fringes. In the western part of the area views are dominated by the Three Peaks landforms of Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-y-ghent. Vertical limestone • Closely grazed, springy, flower-rich grasslands form a neat, bright green carpet between exposed rock features. cliffs at Kilnsey • Scattered trees or open, grazed woodland on scree slopes and cliffs, with occasional windblown trees or shrubs in Crag, Wharfedale ... cliffs and pavements at higher levels. Several large, semi-natural, undergrazed woodlands occur on the dale sides and a few, small, isolated plantations at higher elevations. • A general absence of streams and surface water features, with the exception of occasional small tarns and limited numbers of springs at the base of the limestone moors, mainly around Ingleborough.

'i #{::' j- f;7 -*.r i."r' Foreword by the President Over recent years the suggestion has come up from time to time that we should introduce a regular bulletin produced by desktop-publishing methods. Since the Club has just embarked on its second century, your committee deemed this a suitable time to launch this venture. The main aim of The Yorkshire Rambler will be to reflect fully the activities of the Club and the members, but, above all, to provide a 'good read'. The success or failure of the bulletin will depend on everyone taking the trouble to put pen to paper to let us know about any activity, or indeed any snippet of information, that will be of interest to members. May I exhort you all to make an effort so that we get a publication whose next issue will always be eagerly awaited. ,{,I."#dtvtI Yt-f-ffi-F @1994 Yorkshire Ramblers' Club Secretary - John Schofield, 40 Newall Hall Park, Otley, West Yorkshire LS21 2RD Editor - Michael Smith, 80 Towngate Road, Worrall, Shefiield S30 3AR The opinions expressed in this publication are not necessarily those of the Y.R.C, its Officers or those of the Editor.

  • Hill Walking & Mountaineering
    Hill Walking & Mountaineering in Snowdonia Introduction The craggy heights of Snowdonia are justly regarded as the finest mountain range south of the Scottish Highlands. There is a different appeal to Snowdonia than, within the picturesque hills of, say, Cumbria, where cosy woodland seems to nestle in every valley and each hillside seems neatly manicured. Snowdonia’s hillsides are often rock strewn with deep rugged cwms biting into the flank of virtually every mountainside, sometimes converging from two directions to form soaring ridges which lead to lofty peaks. The proximity of the sea ensures that a fine day affords wonderful views, equally divided between the ever- changing seas and the serried ranks of mountains fading away into the distance. Eryri is the correct Welsh version of the area the English call Snowdonia; Yr Wyddfa is similarly the correct name for the summit of Snowdon, although Snowdon is often used to demarcate the whole massif around the summit. The mountains of Snowdonia stretch nearly fifty miles from the northern heights of the Carneddau, looming darkly over Conwy Bay, to the southern fringes of the Cadair Idris massif, overlooking the tranquil estuary of the Afon Dyfi and Cardigan Bay. From the western end of the Nantlle Ridge to the eastern borders of the Aran range is around twenty- five miles. Within this area lie nine distinct mountain groups containing a wealth of mountain walking possibilities, while just outside the National Park, the Rivals sit astride the Lleyn Peninsula and the Berwyns roll upwards to the east of Bala. The traditional bases of Llanberis, Bethesda, Capel Curig, Betws y Coed and Beddgelert serve the northern hills and in the south Barmouth, Dinas Mawddwy, Dolgellau, Tywyn, Machynlleth and Bala provide good locations for accessing the mountains.

Update on Cave Project Please read before the next CNCC meeting 29 Jan 2010 You may be aware that there is a joint project, the Northern Caves Monitoring Project between Natural England and CNCC to gather local cave conservation monitoring information for all the caves that are Sites of Special Scientific Interest – this includes most of the major caves and cave systems in the Dales. The project also carries out a variety of surface cave conservation works Cave conservation monitoring data 80% of the conservation information has now been gathered, which is an excellent achievement and particular thanks are due to all those who have helped. There are still a few gaps for certain caves (please see table below), which I am hoping to have filled in by the end of February, so if you have visited these caves recently or know anyone who has, please email me on [email protected] and I can send you a cave conservation monitoring form for these caves.
