Hows many of us are based in the westcountry?
I am based in Devon, I know another is based in north Devon and one in south, could always meet up. A "regional" gathering will be easier to organise and more likely to come off.

Hi,

Getting the thread back onto the original question.

Neil it's a great idea. I'm up in North Devon. Name a date sadly It'll have to be before the 25th of Feb for me as I'm off to New Zealand then for good :-D

Cheers

John

Would the eastern side of Dartmoor be central enough for everyone? Perhaps for a day-walk up thru some nice woodland and maybe a camp-out. Thoughts please.

Give an idea of timmings please, this would be very helpfull. SE Bushcrafters note: this is a whole lot better than, Eridge, Rotherfield, Mayfield area ( I know, I grew up there).. Good mixed woodland, brown trout in the streams, wild eds everywhere and the occasional wood nymph!!!

I'm in Hampshire and definately up a for a meet up, be good to meet people and practice with folks that share this interest, most people I tell just look at me as if I've got another head... in fact one mate said he wouldn't mind - as long as hes in a caravan with an electric hook up :AR15firin .

I'm down Devon way... Exeter, in fact!

Have only recently moved to the area, so would be interested to find out where others go in the area, and if there are any local courses/gatherings that take place.

Thanks in advance.
Jed.

I'm just outside Exeter, but getting any free time at the mo is a little difficult to say the least. As soon as work calms down a little, I'll free up a day and we can go exploring.
