Cornwall Outing

[ANDYRAF]

Finally got my act together and pushed myself into the great outdoors again after seven years of retirement from the military.
Didn't go far from home but stepped into a new world of discovery, not the old style of defensive positions or exercises, Just being in the countryside seeing, hearing and enjoying natures finest. I have to say it's a bit of a mind expanding event when you are woken in the middle of the night by an Owl sat in the same tree your hammock is suspended from, especially when he/she is looking under the edge of your tarp.
I think what really pushed me was reading these forums and some of the excellent posts. I'll try get some photos posted so all can see, I don't see why my family are the only ones to have a good laugh.

Interesting looking place...Cheers for the heads up...
Did you camp there, or were you doing one of their courses..?

Woodland Valley is a lovely place, I was there the other day myself. Loads of fox and badger tracks too!

Can you just turn up and go for a wander..?

Just camping and trying to remember how to be comfortable in the field.

I think if you contact the farmer first he would have no objection to you having a wander.

I don't think he wants people turning up with mega tents expecting ameneties, after all it is quite a small area. But now you do know!

Do you do courses on tracking as I would be quite interested learning such a skill.

 

[Rhoda]

I went to see it as a potential site for tracking courses with permission from the farmer obviously who is a nice guy by the way! He runs various walks and events there.
Will send PM about tracking courses as I don't want to misuse the forum!
