This event is a litter collection exercise across Dartmoor's Ditsworthy Warren. (This event has been cleared with the Commoners association).
The event encourages individuals to undertake litter collecting across the moorland area known as Ditsworthy Warren, on Saturday 10th December 2011, between 11am and 2pm (Three hour window).
Defined features on the moor, which are areas of outstanding natural beauty are worth visiting, (and are being targetted for litter collection) are:
Coombeshead Tor (371m), Gutter Tor(350m), Higher Hartor Tor and Lower Hartor Tor. There are however several other features on the moor, including Boundary Stones, Cuckoo Rock, Eylesbarrow Tin Mine, and various other enclosures, hut circles and ancient settlements which are amazing features.
During the time frame of this CITO Event, three teams of students from Treviglas Community College will be out walking on the moor. These teams are undertaking a practise walk as part of their Gold Expedition section of their Duke of Edinburgh's Award. These groups have several Geo-Cachers as members, will be carrying at least one Travel-Bug (Copy Tag) per team (Please ask to see the TB), and will be collecting litter along the way.
