Geeks In The Peaks: 1 month agoWould anyone be interested in a couple of Bushcraft sessions at this years GITP? I’m thinking camp craft (knots and lashings!), wild food foraging, etc. ?

Geeks In The Peaks: 8 months, 3 weeks agoNot sure about the procedural aspects of this, but is anyone interested in a GITP event this autumn? I was wondering about, perhaps, a mix of wild camping, astronomy and gastronomy.

Geeks In The Peaks: 11 months, 4 weeks agoHi,
Anyone up for doing a morning run at GITP, starting on Saturday morning for 8am. How about a gentle run out to Monyash and back again. I don’t think it’s too far a run. Bring your running shoes

Geeks In The Peaks: 1 year agoI have a nice walk planned that leads to 3-4 geocaches around Youlgrave and, of course, a nice pint in either the Bulls Head or George before heading back. It’s around 30 mins each way. Let me know if you’re interested.

Remember to follow the steps on geocaching.com before leaving, you’d need the little note and a logbook etc
Also, might bring my RC helicopter, it isn’t best suited to outdoors, but it’d be fun!
