Yes, you did read that correctly. I’ll be in the Yorkshire Dales for a special environmental workshop this year. We’ll go in search of some limestone specials, including purple and yellow saxifrage. We’ll delve into the grikes to search of woodland remnants, including some ferns, and we’ll chase familiar species on the acid gritstone summit with maybe a chance of some cloudberry. I hope we’ll see plenty of bird life there’ll be meadow pipits of course, but will there be curlew and ring ouzel?
Join me for an explanation of the geology the geomorphology, the plant life, fauna and flora of the Yorkshire Dales. As it typical on my workshops a wide range of topics relevant to mountain leaders will be covered. Discussions will look at land use, human impacts and the choices we face about upland management in the future. We’ll probably head up Penyghent, but our final route choice will be decided nearer the time and I’ll contact you the week before this trip with the final details. There are a limited number of places on this workshop, which counts as CPD for MTA and AMI, so early booking is recommended.
