um
From memory (not checking back to the docs) - it was 57 individuals, about 70% of those doing the Via Ferrata, and typically in groups of 8/9 (from max of 12 per group of VF) I didn't spot numbers for the mid way joining - that presumably is additional? (but who would go all the way there for 30 secs zipping? or even aerial flighting ?) |

The midway joining is aimed at less mobile visitors who wouldn't do the Via Ferrata - such as children or those who are less physically able.

Business plans are only a projection, and, like most plans, have a habit of being revised when coming face-to-face with the real world.

How close to capacity is the Via Ferrata currently running? Is this to make the whole "experience" more popular - or is it pretty much fully booked already?

pressed submit too soon - appeal for funding to replace the trig point on Blencathra. Why it isn't funded automatically? |

I suppose it's up to the Earl of Lonsdale to decide whether he can afford to shell out for a new trig point, and since he was skint enough to try to sell Blencathra a few years ago ...

Trig points have no function any more.
