A few clips from Bowfell at the weekend :-)

Bowfell Climbers Traverse

Another rubbish forecast unfortunately meant no camping again this weekend, instead Peter, Lee, Alex and I decided on a day walk from Langdale taking in the Climbers Traverse and Bowfell.

A week or so ago I managed to nip to the Lakes for the first time this year, I'd hoped for a couple of camps but checking the forecast before leaving home suggested the weather was going to be pretty horrendous...

Day Walk - A birthday wander up Helvellyn

It was my birthday a couple of weeks ago so the Mrs and I headed to the Lakes for a few nights. No wild camping this time as I was being treated to a couple of nights in a lovely B&B not far from Ullswater. It was mostly a nice relaxing weekend, plenty of good food, a few ales and a short wander up Helvellyn on the Saturday, good stuff :-)

Day Walk - The Chalkland Way

I'd originally planned to be in the Lake District when this day walk took place but for one reason or another I ended up having only a single day free to get out for a bit of a wander. Not wanting to use up half the day driving to the Lakes or up in to the Dales or North York Moors I decided on a circular walk closer to home, the Chalkland Way.
