    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)

  • My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership Number: 3812 First Fell Climbed
    My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership number: 3812 First fell climbed: Coniston Old Man, 6 April 2003 Last fell climbed: Great End, 14 October 2019 I was a bit of a late-comer to the Lakes. My first visit was with my family when I was 15. We rented a cottage in Grange for a week at Easter. Despite my parents’ ambitious attempts to cajole my sister Cath and me up Scafell Pike and Helvellyn, the weather turned us back each time. I remember reaching Sty Head and the wind being so strong my Mum was blown over. My sister, 18 at the time, eventually just sat down in the middle of marshy ground somewhere below the Langdale Pikes and refused to walk any further. I didn’t return then until I was 28. It was my Dad’s 60th and we took a cottage in Coniston in April 2003. The Old Man of Coniston became my first summit, and I also managed to get up Helvellyn via Striding Edge with Cath and my brother-in-law Dave. Clambering along the edge and up on to the still snow-capped summit was thrilling. A love of the Lakes, and in particular reaching and walking on high ground, was finally born. Visits to the Lakes became more regular after that, but often only for a week a year as work and other commitments limited opportunities. A number of favourites established themselves: the Langdale Pikes; Lingmoor Fell; Catbells and Wansfell among them. I gradually became more ambitious in the peaks I was willing to take on.

Skiddaw - At the time of reporting this incident, it is not possible to say 2 5 January 11:23 Bakestall path how the man succumbed, but he must have experienced extreme weather conditions on the mountain the day before. We were called by the police to assist a female, whose partner had fallen off a crag while trying to rescue their dog from a precarious position. She had made her own way off the fell, in conditions of failing light, to raise the alarm. When speaking to her, she was unable to give us an accurate location for the incident. As a result, we spent all night searching the fells with no success. During the early 6 January 19:30 Honister area hours of the following day a find was made. We then preceded to set up belays and lower a team member and stretcher to the casualty, who, after treatment was airlifted to hospital by an RAF Sea King helicopter. His injuries were noted as cosmetic and the whole event happened to be caught on television cameras.

OR some time past I have, as too rare opportunity offered, F been trying to sol\'e certain structural problems in the Lake District. For the most part this \\'ork has consisted in following certain geological lines across country, particularly the junctions of lavas and tuffs. This has involved or occasioned observations on the volcanic phenomena; and, as the district is readily accessible, of infinite variety, and of unequalled interest among British areas of igneous rocks, I have thought that a considera• tion of the vulcanicity, though as yet imperfectly kno\\'n, and some discussion of the light which it throws on igneous action generally, would be of interest to the Geologists' Associa• tion. The main strip of mixed intrusive and volcanic rocks covers a wild mountain area of over 400 square miles, containing such famous heights as Scawfell and Helvellyn, and surrounding wholly or partly the lakes of Ennerdale, Buttermere, Derwent• water, Ullswater, Thirlmere, \Vastwater, Haweswater, Devoke \Vater, Coniston, Grasmere, Rydal, ElterWater and Winder• mere, with many lesser tarns. Every part is easily visited; the exposures are magnificent and the existence of complex systems uf folding, intersected by deep valleys, enables the various horizons to be examined along numerous lines and some re• construction of their original form and extent to be attempted.

Wasn’t like any start I had Dodd race in the Lakes is on the next page. ever been in – no elbows out and just shuffled over the line. Stayed mid-pack for most of the duration, only led the last two laps. This is a bit different for me – my usual mode is to go off like a rocket and then cling on. Almost every lap was between 46 and 48 minutes, only a couple of exceptions at the beginning due to traffic and at the end when I was speeding up to get a bit more time at base. I did ping my knee on Saturday evening so had to manage that for the rest of the event. Apart from that energy levels were good and no other problems. 29 yards and not out. Looking forward to seeing how far I can go next time!

  • Bob Graham Detailed Notes
    Bob Graham Detailed Notes These notes are intended to provide a short summary of the best line to take in terms of time and effort. The notes are meant to be read in conjunction with the OS Explorer OL series of maps:- OL4, OL5, OL6 & OL7. However there is a new (as of 2005) map at 1:40,000 scale of the whole Lake District on one sheet. The map is produced by the BMC in association with Harveys maps . The map is printed on plastic so it is tear resistant and completely waterproof! Someone at the BMC must have known about the Bob Graham Round as, although the main map finishes just to the north of Skiddaw, Great Calva appears on an “insert” on the back. Grid references are in parentheses and are preceded with GR: (GR123456). Summits are not generally given grid references in these notes. Also some spellings may be different to those in common use: particularly the use of the correct “gill” as opposed to the pretentious “ghyll” introduced by Wordsworth and Southey. Bearings are also in parentheses but are preceded by MB-: ( MB-256 ). All bearings are magnetic rather than grid. The magnetic variation is taken as 3 degrees. If anyone has any corrections or additions to make to these notes then please send them in. There are several points on the round where there are alternative routes. These are indicated by the word (alternative) in the text. Hold your mouse over the word to see the variation. Section Times The table below shows expected times for each section for a number of schedules.
