Welcome to another Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge We did this a few years ago raising funds for various Queens div benevolent funds and a few cancer organisations prior to that.
Ambush Veteran Adventures are now looking to return to raise vital funds to help sustain all the activity's projects and events that we organise based out of Browndown military training area at Lee on Solent.
We will Rv early on the friday at Browndown sort and pack any kit required. Then make our way up to a campsite near one of the start points. Scoff admin heads down ready for an early departure Saturday morning onto the dales 24.5 miles in 12hrs. Finish early evening kit away ready for tea(beers) and medals. And some scoff. Heads down early rise on the sunday for the drive home.
We will be looking for a support crew to meet the guys at various check points for kit changes and scoff etc Pop the odd blister. If your intrested in that DM me
