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 9th March. From Thornton Reservior, led by Alison

It was so misty on this morning that you could hardly see the water of the reservoir but at least it was dry and 16 of us turned up. There were a couple of new walkers to our group and we hope to see them again.

The route started along the dam road, across fields to an area known as the Ratby Burroughs. Back skirting Crow Wood and the Forest Hill Golf Course, and finishing with a circuit around the reservoir. By this time the mist had cleared somewhat so the views across the reservoir were better - if only slightly! 5.2 miles completed.
