JAG Outdoors & Fitness

Went to a stargazing event with the family on 25 feb. Very disappointing, no charts, no discussion despite being told there would be. An expensive walk in whinlatter where even better trails could have been chosen. For those of you with children and grandchildren do go to the ones organised by staff employed by whinlatter. The nature night was absolutely amazing with Barbara despite the rain. Her enthusiasm and love for nature and children was outstanding and we learnt more about stars with her even though the event was not specifically for that

Joined in a dark skies walk on Friday 4th with a group of 24 people. Only a few stars seen as cloudy but enjoyed the darkness, quiet, sounds of waterfalls, owls etc also seeing the odd frog. Just being in the forest was really calming & relaxing.There was an informal talk with Q&A at the end in a very warm yurt with computerised look at chart of dark skies and star charts available to take away.The time went very quickly . Thanks Jo lovely time had .
