Lake District

After lots and lots of sea kayaking with my ML assesment fast approachiong it was time to get out on the hill.  So i headed to rthe lakes with Dad's old saunders 1 man tent for a 4 day solo mission.
The first day was spent walking from Hird Wood to Poolybridge along the amazing high street ridge.  On Day two I hiked from Pooly Bridge to Grassmere via Helvelyn and Fairfield.  It was a huge day but the wonderfull views and swim in a river at the end made it all worth while.
By day 3,  I had done 2 long days so was knackers and planned moere than the weather and body allowed.  The walk up Great Langdale was aweome wiotha nice scramble up ontop the summit.  The weather then turned so I vias Northe then down he vally into Borrodale before hitching into Keswick to the campsite.
The final day was spent up Skidaw then looping round via an old YH and up onto the Blencathra ridge before running down into town to catch the train to N wales.
