GUIDE TO WHORLTON BECK NAME OF RIVER: Whorlton Beck. WHERE IS IT?: In Teesdale! It's a minute tributary of the River Tees, river left at Whorlton Falls. PUT-INS/ TAKE-OUTS: At Whorlton Falls get out and climb up as far as you wish. APPROX LENGTH: Only 4 metres although it looks like there may be more above. TIME NEEDED: Not long. ACCESS SITUATION: Unknown. WATER LEVEL INDICATORS: Can be done at any level you find your self there at (depending how much plastic you are prepared to scrape of your boat). GRADING: Easy. MAJOR HAZARDS/ FALLS: A hole in your boat and bruised bum at low water. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: A fun little diversion from the Tees which may keep the daft ones in the group happy for a while. It is basically a short bouncy rock slide back into the Tees. Who else is silly enough to bother with this? CONTRIBUTED BY: Bob Evans. |
