 Poster: A snowHead
|
Following on from this thread:
http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=95908
I propose to host a beacon practice session in Dunham Park on Sunday, 20th January starting at 2pm. All welcome - even dogs (but they must be on a lead because of the deer). I have a few spare transceivers so don't worry if you haven't got one.
The grounds belong to the National Trust. Entrance is free but you have to pay for parking unless you can wave a NT membership card. There are tearooms but, from last year's experience, they tend to be busy on a Sunday afternoon.
The entrance to the car park is here:

Alternative, free parking available at the Swan with Two Nicks here:

If you're parking in the pub's car park then I suggest you, at least, buy your lunch there! From the pub, proceed on foot to the end of the lane, cross the footbridge and enter the park. Walk up the hill towards the house. The clock is over the stables to the left.
Meet under the clock at 2pm here:

Bump and grind....
So far we have Dabber and his dog who are interested and I can russle up one, probably two more here.
Current forecast is for snow on Friday and then temperatures around or below freezing through 'til Sunday so it could be quite realistic.

At a guess, somewhere between 1 and 2 hours. More than that and I think we'll be cold and bored.
