What's up


Matthew and Murray, and Geoff

Whats up? We were up. Climbing a near vertical slope to get to the top of Pasture Wood, Marsden. And then removing old plastic tree guards. A couple of bags of re-usable ones, some wooden stakes, and some bags of trash for the tip.

We were: myself, Dave, Baljit, Hap, Richard, Ben, Murray, Matthew, Tanya, Kayleigh, and Geoff.

Rollin' stone

 

Paul carries that weight, and Tanya and Geoff.

Up at Scout Top, Marsden for a spot of guard removal.

We were: myself, Geoff, Murray, Dave, Paul, Tanya, Shelley, Kayleigh and Dave.

On the way down there was a moment of mild peril, when a moderately sized stone got knocked and rolled down the hill towards Murray, who fended it off with a bag of guards.

Tear the whole thing down

Richard and Philip strategise the destruction.

This morning a handful of us were at a previous planting site, Parkwood, to cut back willow that were overwhelming some blackthorn and shading out ground that could be used for allotment plots. We were: Philip and Stephen on chainsaws, myself, Dave, Kayleigh, and owner Richard. Risk assessment done and signed, PPE worn.

Meanwhile Geoff and Michael were at Scammonden collecting more old tree guards, and a mystery skull (small deer?)
