Great run in the sun yesterday morning with the finale back up to Georges Lane via the steep track from Lower Houses CP thanks guys. Made for better piccies at the Pigeon Tower! Just didn’t want to go down!
Above Montcliffe Quarry
and the view to Winter Hill
All present and correct at Two Lads
Now who’s been cairn building – first one to find out!
Descending from the summit of WH
Ruins at Old Rachels
and just beyond where we veered right
Now if only you could buy these tree decorations (click for close-up)
SN or is it HN?
YJ and JtE
Today saw me and FSS out, but without the sun it felt much colder with flurries of snow as we returned to the car. On arrival we spotted EtU’s car, but didn’t see him on the hill. Where did you get to EtU? We did however see Mr Sammon on Two Lads and were offered a cup of tea by the same. Now that’s what I call organised! That lad can skitter down hill.
Funny how FSS can pull an epic out of the most innocuous terrain of the WH massif, as we went ‘off piste’ at the start through the lower quarries below Georges Lane. The conditions on Georges Lane were markedly different to yesterday, with snow having been blown off the hill and onto the Lane making it much harder work. Happy with a fairly hard 7 miles to add to yesterday’s total. Conditions again precluded a visit to Counting Hill.
