Cancelled: Irthing Gorge Lower Carboniferous
The organizer has returned from abroad today (16th) and recce the sites.
Wet clay makes scrambling up to the lower cliff faces not possible without ropes.
A large tree is fallen and blocking the path to the river shore which leads to the main view of a 40ft section of sequence. The river Irthing itself is swollen and the river bed geology not exposed.
At another site the path is deemed too slippery for members down to Crammel Linn waterfall. Similarly, the high volume of water is covering most exposures and sequences.Â
Considering the distance this locality is from most members with the decreased access and increased risk of injury from slips/trips/falls the organizer will cancel the event. We shall get our fix of Sulphur elixir another time.
