03 November In Nank’s footsteps Dave Bamford, John Wild, and Paul Maxim
Since 2014, Dave Bamford, John Wild, and Paul Maxim have endeavoured to keep the legacy of John Nankervis’ trips alive by going back to the mountains with other regulars from Nank’s yesteryears. They will tease out some of these outings and what Nank meant to each of them. Many attendees will have their own memories which they may also like to briefly recall. A fun talk down memory lane.
