Glenridding Oct17 Frontpage www.pdwc.org Vol: 24 Issue 12 17 October 2010 GLENRIDDING via the Kirkstone Pass Coaches leave Glenridding at 5.30pm FUTURE WALKS Coach Walks 8.30am start : 4.30pm return Sun 14 Nov Bolton Abbey A: Allan Benson B+: Barry Hayhurst B: Dorothy Dobson C: Lesley and Alison Sun 12 Dec Hawkshead A: Graham Hogg B+: Tony Ingham B: Colin Hunt C: Stephen Watson Thursday Car Walks 10.30am start Thurs 11 Nov Knott End B Walk with Dave Thornton Meet at the village car park Thurs 9 Dec Waddington B Walk with Colin Hunt Meet in the village Sunday Car Walks 10.30am start See our web site for full details of the Sunday Car Walks Sun 31Oct Calder Vale B Walk with Chris Metcalfe Meet at Mill Square 9 miles/14.5km climbing 700ft/213m Limited parking: car share desirable Starting from Mill Square we follow paths and tracks to Bleasdale and return via part of the Brock Valley. We visit Bleasdale Circle and Bleasdale Church and walk along a section of the Roman Road between Ribchester and Lancaster. We return via Cobble Hey Gardens (refreshments and toilets). Cameras needed to capture the autumn colours and (possibly!!) Halloween occurrences. Don’t forget the clocks go back one hour . Sun 31 Oct Wrea Green C Walk with Derek Lowe Meet at the village green duck pond 5 ½ miles / 8.9km with NO climbing This is one of Cyril Spiby’s walks and when I tried it at the first attempt with Alice we got lost. (Oh happy days! So hopefully-----!) We make our way to Mill Lane and Shepherd’s Farm where we make for the railway line, North Farm, and then Moss Side. A road walk takes us to Eastham Hall and then we cross the railway again. More paths and a short road walk eventually return us to Wrea Green. Sun 28 Nov Longridge B Walk with Tony Ingham Meet at the Civic Hall car park Sun 28 Nov Grimsargh C Walk with Derek Lowe Meet at the Plough 6½ miles / 10.5km climbing 300ft / 91m This was the first walk I ever led. I had 53 members and it was an evening ramble followed by a Hotpot Supper at the Plough Pub to which 43 came. It is my intention to have a meal after this walk to celebrate 35 years of leading walks, so I will be collecting names for the meal and will notify everyone as soon as I have the menu. From the Plough we head for Whittingham Lane from where paths and field tracks bring us to Withy Trees. From here we go to Tenter Hill, then Sand Bank before making for Higher, then Lower, Green Nook. We go through Longridge Industrial Estate to reach Grimsargh via the dismantled railway. You do not have to have the meal to come on this walk, or vice versa, but it may be ‘A Christmas Come Early Meal’. Please note – Walk details must be in 2 (TWO) weeks before each coach excursion. Today’s Walks Today’s starting points: 1. A: Top of Kirkstone Pass 2. B+, B: Patterdale 3. C: Glenridding Red Screes & St Sunday Crag with Graham Hogg Grade A Distance 9 miles / 14.5km Climbing 3281ft / 1000m . No gentle start to this A walk I’m afraid – we start climbing as soon as we get off the coaches at the top of the Kirkstone Pass. It’s a 1050ft/320 metre climb, straight up Kilnshaw Chimney to the top of Red Screes at 2546ft / 776m. After a short rest we push on to Dove Crag, Hart Crag and then Fairfield at 2864ft/873m. This is a good vantage point to see the next part of our route which proceeds to Cofa Pike and then over the long whale back ridge of St. Sunday Crag. From here we descend into Grisedale and make our way to Glenridding and the coaches. Hallin Fell with Tony Ingham . Grade B+ Distance 11 miles / 17.7km Climbing 2500ft / 762m We leave the coaches at Patterdale and ascend to Boredale Hause (1150f/351m). We turn east here and continue climbing to Bedafell Knott (1600ft/488m). At this point we descend into Martindale and follow Howegrain Beck northwards to our main objective of the day - Hallin Fell. We climb to the top (1271ft/387m) and enjoy superb views over Ullswater. After descending we follow Boredale Beck southwards to the head of the valley and climb over it reaching 1300ft/396m in the process. This leads us back to Boredale Hause from where we descend to Patterdale and on to Glenridding for the coaches. Boredale Hause and Sandwick with Bill Manning Grade B Distance 8½ miles / 13.7km Climbing1200ft / 366m Together with the B+ party we start our walk from Patterdale post office (toilets available). We leave the A592 and go along the lane to Rooking to start our climb to Boredale Hause. We make for Boredale Head where we descend on a rocky path into the valley to reach a tarmac road. We follow this for about 2 miles before coming to Beckside. A left turn here along an undulating path brings us to the shore of Ullswater. We continue the walk to Silver Bay where we take the lower path shortly to reach Side Farm. Leaving the farm we reach the A592 which leads us to Glenridding for the coaches and cafés. A Tale of Two Valleys with Stephen Watson Grade C Distance 5 miles / 8km Climbing 500ft / 152m Investigating both Glenridding and Grisedale valleys today we can see the typical formation of glacial valleys. Stick close if you want to hear about some of the history and geology of this area. We start our walk from the car park in Glenridding (toilets available) and head along Greenside Road beneath the impressive Glenridding Screes to the disused mines. Here we will have time to take a look around before moving on. Crossing a footbridge over Glenridding Beck we take the higher path on the south side of the valley, gradually gaining height as we go. A short climb, taken at your own pace, will reward us with super views over Ullswater and the autumn colours of the countryside (bring your camera!) before we visit the well-known Lanty’s Tarn. As we leave the leafy tarn we will have a high view of the neighbouring Grisedale Valley before descending to its floor. Gather some twigs for a quick game of Pooh Sticks as we cross Grisedale Beck before following the minor road to Patterdale. The main road, for the last half mile or so, can be avoided by taking permitted pathways through the woodland back to Glenridding and the welcoming tearooms and eateries. Please note: my walks are taken at an easy and sedate pace for the enjoyment of all. Climbing is undertaken at your own pace and we regroup before moving on. This also gives us the chance to take in the views and soak up the atmosphere of the area and learn a little of its history and geology. Other walks are available if you feel this is not for you. Anyone rushing off ahead will be kneecapped! Please help to keep the coaches clean by removing muddy boots. Please check that you have all your belongings and take newspapers etc. away with you. Thank you. .

  • W Scandale and Red Screes
    Walking with Polartec Ambleside route 1: Scandale and Red Screes Secretly tucked away behind Ambleside is the high valley of Scandale. In times past it provided a direct link between Ambleside and Patterdale for foot and packhorse traffic but with the surfacing of the route over Kirkstone Pass it has fallen out of favour and become something of a backwater. For walkers however this change in fortune is a real bonus, as it provides an unexpectedly quiet and attractive route into the hills, direct from the hustle and bustle of Ambleside. From the top of the dale at Scandale Pass one option is to break out North West and head towards peaks like Dove Crag, Fairfield or St Sunday Crags. This is a fairly full on choice and will suit experienced walkers. If you are new to the area or want a little less challenging area then the fine summit of Red Screes is the mountain to head for. It sits in a lofty and slightly detached position and can be reached easily from Scandale Pass by a brisk ascent to the South East. Its distinct summit is marked by a trig point and a cairn from where you get superb panoramic views. To the South you can look out over the roofs of Ambleside and along the length of Windermere then to the North you can peer through the depths of Hartsop to the shining waters of Brothers Water and Ullswater, and if that isn’t enough to the West and East you have the great peaks of the Central and Eastern fells.

  • Amanita Nivalis
    Lost and Found Fungi Datasheet Amanita nivalis WHAT TO LOOK FOR? A white to greyish to pale grey/yellow-brown mushroom, cap 4 to 8 cm diameter, growing in association with the creeping Salix herbacea (“dwarf willow” or “least willow”), on mountain peaks and plateaus at altitudes of ~700+ m. Distinctive field characters include the presence of a volva (sac) at the base; a cylindrical stalk lacking a ring (although sometimes an ephemeral ring can be present); white to cream gills; striations on the cap margin to 1/3 of the radius; and sometimes remnants of a white veil still attached on the top of the cap. WHEN TO LOOK? Amanita nivalis, images © D.A. Evans In GB from August to late September, very rarely in July or October. WHERE TO LOOK? Mountain summits, and upland and montane heaths, where Salix herbacea is present (see here for the NBN distribution map of S. herbacea). A moderate number of sites are known, mostly in Scotland, but also seven sites in England in the Lake District, and four sites in Snowdonia, Wales. Many Scottish sites have not been revisited in recent years, and nearby suitable habitats may not have been investigated. Further suitable habitats could be present in mountain regions throughout Scotland; the Lake District, Pennines and Yorkshire Dales in England; and Snowdonia and the Brecon Beacons in Wales.

  • Download Press Release
    Your dream photo shoot awaits…… Award-winning Lake District attraction, Ullswater ‘Steamers’, is offering a unique opportunity to step aboard for an exclusive Dawn Photography Cruise. Led by the renowned photographer Mark Littlejohn, who was crowned Take a View Landscape Photographer of the Year 2014, the new cruise will take place on March 5th – perfect for witnessing that stunning spring time dawn. Departing from the Glenridding Pier at 6.30am, the 3.5 hour private charter will allow participants to capture the essence of the atmosphere through the lens, with expert advice from Mark. The award-winning photographer, of Penrith, said: “At dawn you get the early light come up over the Pooley Bridge end and it shines on to the Helvellyn range, which is beautiful. You see the sun coming up over the Pennines and hitting St Sunday Crag, and look up just as the first light hits the fells – it’s amazing, particularly when there is still snow on the tops. “When you get a colourful dawn it can happen 45 minutes before, so we can position the boat just right to get a composition that you could just not get from the road. It’s a completely different experience that lets you get out on the lake and capture that golden hour from a new perspective. “Some really good photographers will come just to have that unique experience, but for those who need guidance, I will be going through the technical aspect of photography. I will explain how best to take a shot, about the settings within the camera, using filters, and I will also set up a screen downstairs to go through processing.” Ticket prices for the Dawn Photography Cruise are £45 per person, which includes the cruise, photography expertise and complimentary tea/coffee on-board.

  • The Fairfield Horseshoe, Wansfell and Orrest Head a Weekend Walking Adventure for London-Based Hikers
    The Fairfield Horseshoe, Wansfell and Orrest Head A weekend walking adventure for London-based hikers 1 of 24 www.londonhiker.com Introduction A classic Lake District circular ridge walk starting from the town of Ambleside, the Fairfield Horseshoe takes in several Wainwright fells and will certainly blow the cobwebs away as you follow the 'horseshoe' round. This is one of the Lake District's most famous day walks, starting from Ambleside in the heart of the Lakes, and it offers gorgeous views of Lake Windermere, and many fells around. On Day 2, walk to Windermere via the spectacular viewpoints Wansfell Pike and Orrest Head, which inspired Wainwright to move to the Lake district. This weekend is based in one location so you will not have to carry your luggage on your hike, apart from on Day 2 when you will walk to Windermere. Summary You'll travel up to Ambleside in the evening, potentially after work, or if you prefer, travelling in the afternoon. On Day 1 you will walk the Fairfield Horseshoe, a classic ridge walk. On Day 2 you will climb up Wansfell Pike and then walk to Orrest Head at Windermere, where you can catch the train back home and be back in your own bed in the evening. You could extend the weekend to three days, by staying an extra night in Ambleside and spending some time exploring the local area on Day 2, then walking to Windermere on Day 3 instead. Some suggestions are provided for extending the weekend by an extra day. Highlights • The achievement of having competed the famous Horseshoe walk and eight of Wainwright's fells to boot (not sure who Wainwright is? Find out more here).
