The Yorkshire Dales are a series of glaciated valleys carved into the upland area of the Central Pennines. The southern dales, centred on Ingleborough and Malham, cut into the thick bed of the Great Scar limestone, wherein lie some of the finest caves in Britain. Above the limestone plateaux rise hills formed mainly of shale, notably the Three Peaks of Ingleborough, Pen-y-ghent and Whernside. %X Following a brief introduction to the geology and geomorphology of the area the reader is taken on four brief 'excursions' to the areas of Chapel-le-Dale, Gaping Gill (Ingleborough), Malham and Ribblesdale. The guidebook is based on an earlier publication from the committee of the 7th International Congress of Speleology (1977), by Glover, Pitty and Waltham. The text has been extensively revised by Tony Waltham and the maps re-drawn by Martin Davies. %_ end # ===== ARTICLES SECTION %P 0 %T Caves and Karst of the Yorkshire Dales: A Field Guide %A Tony Waltham, Martin Davies %X Full text of book (32 pages excluding cover).
