Greyman 29,140 Posted September 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2023 This was the hotel I was put up in though I was leaving early and not getting back until late so never got to try any of the food or bar facility’s, this lazy Kent was meant to make me a packed lunch on the final morning as I had a mountain to climb and 7 trail cams to gather before meting people in Keswick to hand over the data by 9.30 in the morning, fortunately I never rely on anyone 100% so am not to disappointed when it don’t happen 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Saw the mountain rescue helicopter fly in one night when I was up on top another mountain looking across, it’s a dangerous place if your not prepared, I am aware of my age and physical short comings so never go anywhere like that without a few medical supplies and some kit to dig in for night if I have to , it’s surprising how many dicks get in the shit when the cloud comes down get lost and just walk off the edge, natural selection I guess 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greyman 29,140 Posted September 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2023 Surprising how quick shit can get real, as I said I’m well aware of my own physical limitations and more geared up to hunkering down than out running a storm, lots of boulders and crevices to give you shelter even in the worst conditions, anyways be safe and enjoy your adventure it truly is a breathtaking place 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rickshaw swami 4,191 Posted September 18, 2023 Report Share Posted September 18, 2023 I was asked to walk a cotton farm and chase off any beaver I found. I found several dams but couldn't find the beaver. Finally found a lodge.We chased em back to the river. Found this little fellow while terrier was working. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
