Fair enough, I thought as you have already spent sometime looking into the application you may already have them.
Secondly, you say that the anchors that have been chosen were selected as they don't get in the way of anything etc. That sits at odds to an earlier observation in this very thread (by Nai?). Again, could we have some fact, a photograph perhaps showing which anchor you intend to use?
Now who thinks that that is a reasonable prospect?
causual observer who rolls up one day at burbage, sees some guys with a zipline setup and think "hey that looks rad, why don't I go and set one of them badboys up myself
Playing the 'inclusion' card is the last resort of the moron with no meaningful argument
Let's think of the numbers.How much are you prepared to pay for a 15 second zip wire ride? (Let's compare it to the standard stag day activities which are about £70 per head for two two hour sessions). £20?Now let's imagine that they're going to have to pay to set up and remove the thing each day and have staff there at the top and bottom and running the harnesses and helmets from bottom to top.Add in the cost of the stuff to build it.Add in the cost of the insurance.I'd imagine you'd need at least 100 punters per day to even break even.Now who thinks that that is a reasonable prospect?This just won't fly.
long time lurker, but this caused me to be a first time poster....
I reckon david lama and over-caffeinated sugary drink company are involved in this application somehow, to make a well rad film about someone fuelled by over-caffeinated sugary drink company and/or pepsi max taking it to the edge,
Or perhaps callum also wants easier access to obvious dry tooling venues in the peak, as dry toolin is well rad at the moment too yeah?
Hi everyone my name is Darren Thomas of Adventures Are Us Limited.
A national park is a natural environment. A zip wire is a fake adrenalin high in an environment of simulated danger, is not a true adventure and has nothing to do with nature or beauty. I also find your tone concerning threats of libel to be infantile and repulsive. This country has oppressive libel laws which need to be reformed. Nice to know you're on the side of the oppressor. I'm ashamed to know you work in the outdoor environment. You obviously learn little from it.Sam
Apologies, I come in peace.... didnt realised I had posted before.
The lama and over-caffeinated sugary drink company reference was to the patagonia debacle where they went to make a film and drilled alot of shiny new bolts and a general mess as well which they got rightly condemmed for.
But also wasnt there a furor about the mammut teams visit and the mess they left too? or was that the year before, I cant remember.
