MPC Walks 1979

The following MPC walks were planned for 1979. At the end, if available, is a link to a document containing the Retrospect or Report for the year, usually from the following year's handbook, and which describes what actually happened. Here is a pdf scan of the walks programme summary in the 1979 Members' Handbook.

Given are the walk number and date, the name of the walk, its leader, and length. This is followed by starting time and location, and route details.

However, since the individual walks leaflets do not seem to be available, the walks below have been transcribed from the above summary walks programme, which omits some of that information.
