Dear All

Phil & Nick will be around next week from Monday until Friday staying at The Patterdale Hotel with 22 members of Ryedale Walking Group. We will be activating a few WOTA and SOTA summits. We don’t know which summits will be activated on which day, but Red Screes, Middle Dodd, Little Hart Crag and High Hartsop Dodd will definately be activated as this walk I will lead myself. It is unlikely to be on the Monday. There may be a few other summits activated in the week. All activations will be brief so as not to impede the walking group. Anticipated activation time is only likely to be 5 minutes on each summit with handheld and whip. If we land on a summit for lunch then we will have a little more time in which to make contacts. We will try to alert the night before once the next days walk routes are confirmed. It looks like the weather will be good next week in the Lakes, and with the summer bus schedule starting on Monday 31st March we will be able to use the 508 bus through the whole length of the Kirkstone Pass, Penrith to Windermere.

Nick and I will be QRV on Red Screes and three other Wainwrights tomorrow. Please check alerts. Times approx. Very brief activations due to walking group, so please keep overs short.

A grand day to be out on the tops. Looks like a good time was had over there on Red Screes.

Fabulous Reg, thank you for taking the photos and putting them on Discourse. Really pleased to meet you for the first time at last…

It was just like the old days activating a few Wainwrights, most enjoyable but I won’t be going around them all again!

Thanks to the Chasers and sorry that we missed Richard @M8XGO who was also operating /P on the same day. The bonus was we did work Keith @G1FVA on Glenridding Dodd and Sheffield Pike that were both new WOTA Chases for me and Nick @G4OOE. We had a fabulous week with the 22 members of Ryedale Walking Group at the Patterdale Hotel, our last holiday with the group there was in 2022.
