What I've Done

By JohnGravett

Lingy Hut

Back on the Wainwright trail again today, we drove round the far side of Skiddaw to Mosedale and walked from there. Covered 14.2 miles - 32,000 steps, but only 2,400 feet of climbing. It was a long route, but the conditions were gorgeous, all the bogs (and it is a notorious route for bogs) were bone dry. The pic is of the Lingy Hut Bothy on the Cumbria way - I rather liked the stark nature of it in the landscape, and the cables holding it down for windy days!

Covered:

Carrock Fell: 40/214
High Pike (Caldbeck): 41/214
Knott: 42/214
Great Calva: 43/214

We were so exhausted at the end of the walk, we had to drop into the Old Crown pub at Hesket Newmarket for a restorative pint. 

Definitely a couple of days rest after that!

Have finally broken the £1,000 - worth of sponsorship - £3,000 to go!
