  • The Yorkshire Three Peaks Itinerary - Outline for Bespoke Trips
    THE YORKSHIRE THREE PEAKS ITINERARY - OUTLINE FOR BESPOKE TRIPS Located roughly in the centre of Northern England is a beautiful area of valleys and hills. These hills are fairly rugged, with steep sides, exposed cliff edges and several peaks over 600m. Added to the natural beauty of this national park are age-old human influences, with remains of ancient settlements, scenic farms and villages, field-barns and classic limestone walls. We take the challenge of climbing 3 of these peaks, covering 24 miles in one day. DAY 1 ARRIVE YORKSHIRE We all meet at our accommodation, have a welcome meal in a local pub and a briefing about the day ahead. DAY 2 THE CHALLENGE! 8-10 HRS TREKKING We start with an early breakfast before making our way to the trailhead. From Horton-in- Ribblesdale we head towards our first peak of Pen-y-ghent (691m), trekking through valley’s, crossing streams and farmland, and finally taking the path that winds it’s way up to the summit. Back in the valley of fields and farmland we stop for a break, before the approach of the second peak, Whernside. Following the great Settle to Carlisle railway line and viaduct, we progress to the dizzy height of 728m and our second summit. From here it is a steep descent to our final target through boggy sections, across steps of board and stone to help our crossing. Our climb up to the pathless Ingleborough summit plateau (723m) brings us to the final summit. We can now descend back down into the valley and heading home to Horton, where we eat heartily, drink a little and sleep extremely well.

  • South Ribble Fell Search & Rescue Team 1962
    South Ribble Fell Search & Rescue Team 1962 - 1980 Introduction 1 The Beginning 2 Team Leaders 3 Callouts by Year 4 Amalgamation 5 Cop Lane 6 Vehicles 7 Film Callout Callout 8 Team Kit 9 The “Bomb” 10 Fell Races 11 Reunion Note £ figures in brackets are the approximate relative value in 2020 Introduction On 25th March 1962 in the fells north of Chipping 3 siblings set out on a day’s walk which was to end in tragedy with the two brothers losing their lives despite their sister raising the alarm. Mountain Rescue in England was in its formative years, there was no team for miles and no routines or protocols for calling one in to help. I believe this incident provided the final push for two teams to be formed in the county. Jim McVeigh and Peter Williams gathered together a number of people to form South Ribble Fell Search and Rescue Team, based at Cop Lane in Penwortham, Preston. The team remained at this location for most of their existence. In contrast, Ross Drysdale believed there was a need for a wider co-ordinating role, an umbrella agency, with contacts and units across Lancashire, Yorkshire and beyond, able to call upon others with specific skills; Raynet with radio communications, North West Fell and Mountaineering First Aid Unit etc, and deploy them as each incident dictates. The name of this new group reflected his aspiration, Northern Rescue Organisation (NRO) with Ross as its organiser. Attempts were made as early as 1973 to form closer ties between the two teams but these did not develop.

  • Yorkshire Weekender
    The Dales Way Association. PO Box 1065, Bradford, BD1 9JY. [email protected] www.dalesway.org.uk Newsletter Number 40 Autumn 2011 Editorial It has always been one of the aims of the Dales Way Association to eliminate road-walking as far as possible from the route of the Dales Way. One short section of minor, but busy road has exercised our minds for many years, the stretch from Sprint Bridge to Hall Lane, which leads into Burneside. The obvious solution would be a footpath over the wall on the south side of the road and parallel to it. In 2006 an attempt was made to create such a footpath, but nothing came of it. In 2010 Cumbria County Council started another initiative, but again, fifteen months later, no progress had been made. In August of this year the Association requested the help of Chris Holland, South Lakeland District Councillor. He responded within 48 hours and progress since then has been rapid. The land is owned by the Cropper Estate (Croppers also own the paper mill in Burneside). Chris has already had a meeting with Mr Cropper, who is sympathetic to our request, but he has not yet spoken to the tenant farmer at Burneside Hall, whose agreement would also be necessary. Chris and committee member Donald Holland have walked the proposed path in order to assess the cost of the gates and stiles required. The Dales Way Association has agreed to contribute to these costs and we thank Chris for his help and enthusiasm in moving to solve a 40 year old problem.
