North Yorkshire, United Kingdom
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

WHOAP, LANG RIGG ROUND

Alf Wainwright left a few shillings on the top of Lang Rigg as buried treasure; but it would take more than that to induce me to go up there again in the near future. Perhaps it was the gloomy weather but there was nothing on those fells that offered any delight - blank moorland, incredibly bogs and bleak weather blowing in off the Irish Sea.
The view a nuclear power station - Sellafield.
Figure in the landscape, Jo on Swarth Fell, our penultimate top, number 5. Six Birketts, One Wainwright.
