So there we were bimbling along up Mosedale enjoying Saturday`s sunshine and giving young Chris Cripps some time out on the hill when,shock horror,we see a group of runners coming the other way.Nothing for it,we`ll have to break into a trot to create a good impression.
On second thoughts,no need `cos it turns out to be half of Macc Harriers on a sneaky awayday.
Hope you got back before dark & the campers survived the coldest night of the year.
We enjoyed the solitude of the upper Esk by turning right after we saw you & climbing to Ore Gap,Esk Pike and then all the way down the north side of Eskdale back to the car.
Yesterday was another cracking day,3 hours of Trailquest,lunch in the pub & 3 hours of collecting checkpoints....pity about the drive home though,it was gruesomely slow.
Anyone got any (slow) plans for next weekend?
