Unfortunate use of the "watermark" system. Looks like they have graffiti the rocks with "Holdz"

We can only aspire to the Swiss model of crag cleaning.

The Swiss crag cleaners look amazing - wonder if there's a group out there who do brambles too!!!

A herd of perhaps 30 Muntjac deer will clear brambles nicely. We just need to work out a way of transporting them around the country and letting them loose in our favourite bramble-ridden orienteering areas...
