Update on Edenfield Site Access

Last month, I reported that after discussions with the farmer grazing sheep and lambs on the landing field, we had managed to keep the site open with an extended restriction period. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case.

Earlier this month, following southerly winds, several members were approached by a different farmer while flying on the fell. Further discussions have since taken place with both farmers, and a new agreement has been reached.

Revised Arrangements:

• Edenfield landing field will be closed for lambing from 1st April to 25th May.

• The Edenfield site will return to the usual closure period of 25th April to 25th May.

Please respect these closure dates.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

As a special treat, we’ve had one more club night before the break until next winter. Pete Logan, Dales Club Chief Coach kindly agreed to come and talk to us about getting to the next level and flying that dream 100km.

View Pete's presentation from the night.

Edenfield landing field will be closed for lambing from 1st April to 25th May. Unlike previous years when the entire site was closed, we have reached an agreement with the tenant farmer to keep the site open while closing the landing field for an extended lambing period.

Please respect this closure and avoid landing in the field, land on the the fellside instead.

Signs have been placed on the gates at the top of the access track as a reminder. We encourage everyone to remind fellow pilots about the closure when on the hill.

Thank you for your cooperation.
