Alternative Spring in Lakeland

I shall be traveling to  Langdale on Sunday to meet up with EtU who will be driving over from Santon with the intention of running the first part of the Old County Tops route,  a sort of nostalgic trip into our past.  

How close we follow the route will depend on our rate of progress,  our physical condition and our ability to not get lost.  From the New Dungeon Ghyll we plan to run over to Grasmere, then to Grisedale tarn, Helvellyn and Wythburn, leading to Greendale Edge and then if time permits via either Stake Pass or Angle Tarn and back to the ODG.

At our best we reached Angle Tarn in 4hr  14min and our worst was 5hr 30min  so we may well end up looking for a short cut back to our cars

I will have three spare seats in the car and if anyone wants to join us I can be at the Hob Inn at 7.15 am  with a view to meeting EtU at 9  am. Let me know.

In the meantime EtU and myself will be UTUPping for a shortish run on Saturday morning.
