About Me

My photo
I've recently retired and I've been doing long distance walks for some years now - this one is the biggest yet though.

Dry at last!

Could not get a signal at all on Thurdsay so that made updates difficult.  Technology is all back working now so one we go....
Friday's walk was actually dry!  12 miles from Threkeld to Caldbeck.  Although I wanted to go over the tops of the hills and mountains, because the clouds were so low I thought better of it.  I still managed to get up to 1050ft though.

View from Caldbeck Common
The views from Caldbeck Common were uncommonly good - the Penines to the West, Dumfries and Galloway to the North, the High Lakes to the South and Carrrock and Caldbeck fells to the West.  Treat yourself to a panoramic view by clicking here.

Stayed at a very basic campsite - a field field full of sheep!
