Were getting there and the programme will be ready soon……….
Just been to the PikeView Hike incident hike (www.pikeviewhike.co.uk) held at Bibbys
Farm Scout Camp at Rivington. 28km in 8 hours with 6 checkpoint incidents to
complete and an ongoing incident/ quiz to complete as you walk the course.
Plotting the route was a killer but we did it at last and only got lost a few
times……well, OK, more than a few times. Even so it was a good weekend yet again.
Pictures below from one of the incidents:

Back to the chariot race at Bispham Hall where we
improved on last year and even qualified to run again in the second leg on
Sunday. Still no placing though – perhaps 2007 will be our year! Oh, by the way
the Scouts won the chariot of chariots trophy again with a quizzical ‘what’s in
the box’ chariot.
Completed the Atherton HQ – Middlewood – Dunham Massey
trek this month, all 28 miles of it! We started on the Friday evening, deprting
HQ at around 18:00 and walked the 9 miles or so to Middlewood Camp, fully laden
with packs and provisions. There we camped overnight while the leaders and scouts
stayed in a hut. The following day we walked all the way to Dunham village
along the canals of
Explorers is underway at last with it’s first camp on 23-25th June 2006, when we camped out back-woods style in the woods at Waddecar, and completed a 6 mile hike with fully-loaded packs to prepare us for the proposed Atherton-Middlewood-Dunham Massey hike later in the summer.
