Location

A pasture on the northwest bank of Nookton Beck, about 4 miles WSW of Derwent Reservoir, County Durham, UK.

Participants

George McBane Mcbaneg (talk) Susanne Buchau (official expedition photographer) Katja McBane Rebekah McBane


Expedition

Pretty straightforward navigation on rural roads, followed by an easy half mile walk across pasture, in the lovely northern Durham Dales. No GPS, and in this rural valley the smartphone didn't have enough signal to give us a location marker, so once on foot we navigated from memory of the Peeron Map I had studied that morning.
