Dundee U3A Wee Adventure Group

Another go at walking ourselves off a cliff edge, although most of this group of six had not been on the previous abseil.  It was a lovely day to be in the forest and we thoroughly enjoyed the morning, feeling perfectly safe in the hands of skilled and experienced leadership from Ancrum Activity Centre.  After a few abseils down the rock face, we were given the opportunity to climb up another face - most agreed it was far easier to come  down than go up!

  For our first activity in 2023 we got rid of our frustrations by hurling axes - no, not at each other!  As in most things it's harder than it looks, although we eventually found the right technique and everyone hit the target.  We tried single handed, doubled-handed and even, with an axe in each hand aiming for both targets at once.  There were a few bull's eyes, made more special by the ringing of a brass bell to make sure no one's victory went unnoticed.
