Keswick visit

We had an away day this week with work on the Banks of Derwent water, what a great place to visit.

While i am here i thought i would make the best of it and while everyone headed home, i headed for the top of Skiddaw. It was tough from the start but as i got over the shoulder it started to even out a little before i could see Little Man in front of me. A last pull up to the top and the views were great all down the valley.

I could now see Skiddaw although not quite the trig point yet so pushed on. The wet weather of the week had left and i had great viws on all sides. The trig point soon came up as i reached after the first top and a great view out to sea. The walk down wasn't without it's hassles as my boots decided to give up as the sole on my left became detached and i flapped back into the car park. That'll give me a job to get some new boots for tomorrow - i hope they don't rub and better take the Compede's incase.
