    MOUNTAIN RINGLET SURVEY SQUARES 2014 – NOTES FOR SURVEYORS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: The following relates only to dedicated Mountain Ringlet searches. For casual records please use our website “Sightings” page where possible. Click on sightings report on: www.cumbria-butterflies.org.uk/sightings/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- We’d welcome surveys in any of the squares listed below, but are particularly interested in those marked * and +, ie where there have been recent positive sightings well away from known colonies or discovery of possible new colonies. The areas to be surveyed fall into 3 groups, in colour below, but also suffixed (1), (2) or (3) for those with black & white printers etc. 1. Grid squares that have previous positive sightings (shown in red) (1) 2. Grid squares adjacent to the above (shown in blue) (2) 3. Grid squares that are previously unrecorded but may have potential to hold Mountain Ringlet populations (shown in green) (3) The objective of these surveys is to try to determine the geographical spread of some known colonies, but also to survey areas that have suitable geology and which may hold previously unrecorded Mountain Ringlet populations. All the 1-km grid squares listed below lie in the 100-km square: NY AREA 1 - LANGDALE 2608 Martcrag Moor / Stake Pass (2) 2607 (north-east corner only) Part of Martcrag Moor (2) 2806 (northern edge) Raven Crag (1) 2807 Harrison Stickle (1) 2710 (eastern half only)

  • Jennings Ale 2Alt
    jennings 4 day ambleside ale trail Day 3 - langdale hotel, elterwater - wordsworth hotel, grasmere This is the peak bagging day of the trip. After leaving the Langdale Hotel the route heads out along the old tracks down Langdale to the hotel at the foot of Stickle Gill. From here a fairly stiff climb gives access to the dramatic crag ringed corrie occupied by Stickle Tarn. Unlikely as it might seem standing amongst all the towering crags there is a sneaky route to the surrounding summits from the tarn. It leads in zig-zags to the dip between Harrison Stickle and Pavey Ark from where both peaks can easily be gained. The obvious diagonal line that cuts across the crags of Pavey Ark is Jack’s Rake which is a popular scramble. The rest of the crag provides top quality rock climbs. Having summited these two a big loop takes in Thunacar Knott and Sergeant Man, and then heads down, via Blea Rigg and Easedale Tarn, to the pastoral beauty of Grasmere and the welcome sight of the Wordsworth Hotel where a lovely, refreshing pint of Cumberland Ale awaits you! Before setting off please make sure you plot the suggested route on OS maps and pack a compass. They are essential for a safe, enjoyable day in the hills! Grade: Time/effort 3, Navigation 3, Technicality 3 stunning unrestricted views to the south out over Langdale and Start: Langdale Hotel, Elterwater GR NY326051 towards the giants of the Coniston Fells. The next of the ‘Pikes’ Finish: Wordsworth Hotel, Grasmere GR NY337074 is Thunacar Knott.

Then it’s onto the Scafell Hotel in Borrowdale via one of the best viewpoint summits in the Lake District. After that comes an intimate tour of Watendlath and the Armboth 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.

    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.
