The highest peak in our operational area is Great Shunner Fell, sitting at the head of the valley at 716m. The Pennine Way runs along it's ridge. Well worth a walk up from either Thwaite or Hardraw.

A rather chilly training session at buttertubs pass yesterday evening. Thanks to Kim from Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue Organisation who came up to share some ideas on tripod usage. We also had a quick recap on ground anchors.

How things change!
Here we have a 58cm Caygill 531 competition, hand made in 1987 and my 2026 custom Caygill carbon. The Caygill 531 is for sale and to the right person will make a lovely bike to make memories on. We're asking for £100 or nearest offer and the full amount will go to the Swaledale Mountain Rescue Team.
If we were to hand make this (frame and fork only) now the cost would exceed £2000 So this is a real bargain!
Who's interested?
Make me an offer!
