To round off an excellent day, except for hurting my thumb, we enjoyed an awesome BBQ on the shore of Derwent water...
Today's great plan was to give Grand Alliance (the ultra classic E4 of Black Crag, Borrowdale) a shot...
After a hot day at Black crag, what more could we want..... yes magnums delivered courtesy of Jon.... Mmmmmmmmmmmm.
Dave & Pippa took a trip down the Lune from Halton to Glasson Dock.
With glorious midweek weather in Borrowdale, we headed up to Christmas Crag to escape the crowds.....
Saturday afternoon and Anna and Sarah decided to brave the Borrowdale crowds and headed for Sergeant Crag Slabs...
Summer is back!!!! We headed to Headend Quarry for an evening of climbing and beer at The old Crown.
Laetitia, Paul and Pete were greeted by BMC signs informing us that peregrines were nesting at today's venue - Warton Quarry. Not that we needed the signs to know that the warning in the guide book about possible nesting bird restrictions was likely to be in force, there were dozens of people twitching away with massive telescopes and cameras with two foot long lenses...
Heavy rain and a cold northerly wind was forecast, so Kath, Dave, Paul, Laetitia and Pete decided the best option for the weather was to go for a mountain bike round of Kentmere...
