The Medium Walking Group

Co-ordinator:   Alison Thompson - mediumwalk@ashbyu3a.co.uk - phone 07930 557432


The leader will be at the meeting place whatever the weather and only cancel the walk in consultation with those who turn up on the day. All dogs must be kept under control at all times. Walking boots or strong shoes are recommended. Be prepared for bad weather by taking warm WATERPROOF clothing. Leaders act in a voluntary capacity. All ramblers walk at their own risk.

NOTE
The walk leader is responsible for advising the webmaster of the start point of the walk, and afterwards sending him a walk report. The first aid box and list of emergency contacts will be passed on after each walk to the next leader or to Alison.

Monday 12th January. From the Gelsmoor, led by Alison

It was a good turnout for our first walk of the New Year. 15 of us met at the Gelsmoor Pub as we planned to have lunch after the walk.

We walked to the New Lount Nature Reserve, through Rough Park and Heart Wood parallel with the A42. Even though we had rain the day before to wash away most of the snow there were still some icy spots to navigate. However we all made it back in one piece and had a very good lunch afterwards. 4.7 miles completed.
