I too am very disappointed at the BMC’s failure to provide a correct interpretation of the law and any meaningful guidance. As an organisation who is supposed to represent its members, we need you to lead the national debate about exercise and access to the outdoors, give us accurate advice and influence public opinion. One of your Facebook posts says Germany and Sweden have guidance and they haven’t stopped climbing. If this is right? If so why haven’t we got it? And where were the BMC when walkers were being followed by drones at Curbar? Like many of the people who have commented below I miss the mountains, even though I can see them from my house. It seems as if the BMC have just caved in and taken the easy way out by saying, “Don’t go!”. You are a representative body - please get out there and represent us!
