Grab it While You Can - A quick walk up Barrow

Opportunities for fell walks are rare for us at the moment and will be none existent for a week or two and we haven't got much time today. But half a day and wall to wall sunshine so off we go whilst we've got the chance

Someone is pleased to be on the fells. If bum's could smile, this is what they'd look like!

But not for long, too much running to do

She's having a fab time jumping through the bracken

We reach the ridge and come back into sunshine, the ground is frozen hard. It's perfect.

3.5 miles for us, probably 35 for Breeze. So good to be out on the fells again, albeit a short walk on a small fell. In conditions like this it really doesn't matter where or what, just being is enough!

  1. What a great little walk Rachel. Sorry your time on the fells is limited at the moment.

  2. Thanks Maggie, Barrow is lovely and it so handy for a short walk. It was great to be out on such a lovely day. We are missing the fells but sometimes other things have to take priority and we just have to count our blessings that we can normally get on them more! At least it's while the days are short at the moment.
