Photographers, Drains and Summer Branch Drop


Branch drop at Low Piel Near





It has been the usual varied week, as seems to be so common in the life of a Ranger. I have spent quite a lot of time talking to visitors and suggesting places to visit and also picking up the litter that they unfortunately leave behind. I collected 12 bin bags full in 3 hours last weekend, with an assortment of items of clothing and shoes scattered across the countryside, there were also tents, unwanted food and the usual remains of BBQ's. Whilst on my travels I came across a branch that had been shed from a tree at Low Piel Near, this is as a result of process called "Summer Branch Drop" which can happen after periods of dry weather, when some of the trees shed a limb.


We have also been out and about clearing blocked drains on footpaths and ensuring that the paths are not washing away. An important task that takes quite a long time, but is absolutely essential.


For yet more variety I have met up with a couple of photographers to take them to some special places in the lakes. One photo shoot was for a high profile Men's fashion magazine up in the Tilberthwaite area and the other photographer was interested in high quality landscape photographs on a theme of Philanthropy, areas that have been left to the nation.
