Handy High Pike

Lots of reasons for not doing anything too strenuous today. Husband is getting over a horrible lurgy and isn't sure how much energy he'll have; Breeze is on heat and is a bit quieter than normal and Molly is with us for a couple of days so we need to pick something that has fairly easy terrain. High Pike it is then.



 OK, so Breeze is feeling a bit out of sorts, but it doesn't show when she gets out of the car

Molly is as serene as ever!

We chose to go up Drygill Beck for a change. You are pretty sure not to meet anyone else on this route




It's moments like this that remind me, how amazingly lucky we are to be living here.



This guy was just getting himself organised as we walked past him, he then took off straight above us

Lots of Fell Ponies about today



5.5 miles, husband was fine, Breeze was just the same as usual and Molly coped amazingly as always. Hopefully we will start to get back on the fells a bit more in the coming weeks.
