Sunday Photowalk
The next Sunday Photo walk will take place on Sunday 19 February and is a day out to North Wales to take photos of a welsh classic - Tryfan.
I suggest an early start, and car sharing. the walk itself is not long, less than a mile; however, it's uphill (at least 300 ft), and on rough ground - Mountain wear is essential. Oh, and it will probably be wet.
If you would like more information please speak to Paul Yates or join the conversation on the Club's Facebook Group.
