Walks at the moment: We are trying to finish the Birketts, just 30 left out of 541 including Pillar Rock as the finale. Finished the Wainwrights in 2013, last one Slight Side. We enjoy walking in the Yorkshire dales, having done most of the 2,000ers in the old boundaries that was once North Riding and interested in the Nuttalls - keep adding the lists. Welsh 3,000 also lots of good stuff to do in Scotland - plenty of summits2do MAIN BLOG PICTURES PLEASE CLICK TO ENLARGE ALSO CLICK OLDER BLOGS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE FOR PREVIOUS YEARLY POSTINGS

WET SLEDDALE, SHAP FELLS

Sleddale Pike with a low Sleddale Reservoir behind

Wet Sleddale circuit, four tops: Sleddale Pike, Wasdale Pike, Saddle Crag and Ulthwaite Rigg - all Birketts and Wainwright Outlying Fells. Absolutely scorching, 20 degrees plus route-finding was hard and very few paths just sheep trods. Living up to its name WET Sleddale, boggs abound. Saw two large herds of red deer - this is barren country!
