For anyone seriously interested I have found a very remote place that will gladly let us practise archery, cook on open fires, camp in tents or camper vans, Has a fabulous cafe, Toilets, showers etc. Also for those wanting to polish up their skills they also do Abseiling, Gorge Scrambling, Canoeing and Kayaking, Rock Climbing, Caving. It could be an ideal place for an RZ in the north.

Alternatively if you have had to bug out and are looking to add remote locations as useful stop over places this is ideal.

I dont want to sound elitist or nasty but this place is an absolute bastard to get to, I think there is only 1 community bus to Harrowgate a day each way if you are stuck with public transport.
I nearly burnt out my vans clutch and brakes when I came over the top on C roads when reccying the area today.

The instructor led skills course are not cheap either at £50 per subject, but they do do a fabulous 3 1/2 hour long experience of via ferrata, scrambling, rock pool swimming and abseiling.

Please serious comments only if you fancy a hard core preppers RZ sometime in the north east. I'm not trying to put anyone off but to be honest I cannot be arsed with the usual " I'll be there " comments then as time goes by " Soz cant come me mams, gay gardeners labrador has just had puppies"

You would be suprised just how many people in our community who cannot read a map or use a compass, I reckon they will last a few days after TSHTF cos it only takes the GPS satelite network about 48 hours to get out of sync and become useless

...map to grid.....

Ahhhh the good old days.

And moss grows on which side of a tow bar?
My GPS lies anyway so I'm still a compass and map sort of guy.

Would be interested... You gonna come this time NR?

Cheeky bugger , I've done eleven or twelve so far in the UK, I'm entitled to a sick day

One useful point about this place as an interim BOL is because of the topography if you kicked the sign down at the roadside by the main gate when TSHTF you would never know there was a cafe, camp site etc there.

Just supply the where & when and it will be on. TL

Is this one still a possibility or is there not enough interest ?

Is a very valid future location for RVs but its also worth noting it as a temp BOL for yourselves. so far only a few people haver shown any real willingness to do RVs, and of course as motoring gets ever more expensive even fewer folks will be willing to travel.
