Even A Mountain Goat Would Have Struggled!
Only a short post from me tonight because I'm absolutely knackered! Today's 15 mile walk was spectacular and saw us climb to the highest point of the Cumbria Way-2157 feet-providing a fantastic panorama which included a clear view of some Scottish mountains. It was a steep climb, hands and knees at one point, not helped by the fact that Jacko got us lost and we climbed a track that a goat would have baulked at! But, as the cliche goes, it was worth it in the end! We were blessed with yet another sunny, dry day, although the farmer where we camp tonight says we're due an inch and a half of rain tomorrow morning. Deep joy! Here are some photos of the day's hike.

Wow another day of stunning scenery accompanied by stunning weather. You really have been so lucky to avoid the majority of the rain.
ReplyDeleteI'll stick to the edge of the lake though Russ - don't you be having any plans to drag me up any goat paths :-D
Missing you loads just one more night until 'there's nothing like it' :-D

Hey you. Really pretty pics again, can't believe you're back tomorrow! Bet there's a little part of you that doesn't want it to be over :-)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing you and hearing all about it. Personally I'm most looking forward to hearing the tales of you and Holyoak falling over :-D
Enjoy your last day as an adventurer.
