More Walk Leaders Required
It would be helpful if we could have some walks starting and finishing in Carlisle, not too strenuous, about 6/7 miles.
We have quite a few members who do not have a car
and can't get to the start of walks

We park at Hartsop, through the village grid ref: NY 409 130 - honesty box.

We then have a choice of doing Thornthwaite Crag/ Beacon and Grey Crag and back, or continuing up the scrambly bit (not difficult but both hands needed) of Threshwaite Crag up to Stoney Cove Pike . After that it is 2 plus miles down over Hartsop Dodd b4 the final steep descent.
