    Problem at Braida Garth in Kingsdale, last night.

    I think it was the Yordas gate that was left open. Maybe the CNCC could offer to install a style by the Yordas gate and put some signs on the others.

    Stone shelter on Whernside

    http://www.philpinfarm.co.uk/ You could ask here if they know who the best person to talk to is. They have a campsite and a cafe on the 3 peaks route so they're ptobably used to daft questions from the public

    Stone shelter on Whernside

    Somebody could ask the farmer. If they've been around for generations they'll probably at least have a theory.

    Fixed Aids and Safety Installations

    How is that relevant to caving? The stats for caving say something completely different.

    Tickets for Northern Explorers forum 2023 go on sale on 10th March

    I don't think I was charged. I meant that I went through the entire payment process, including logging onto my bank's app to confirm the payment, before I was told it was sold out. The problem lies with Paypal though, not you.
