3 Peaks walk

This past weekend we all went out for a fundraising walk of 25miles and 3 very tough mountains to go up with the "Yorkshire Dales 3 Peaks Walk".

Rona and Eve, Angus and Archie went off with a load of others to a waterfall walk while us 4 went on the walk.

Fantastic views, but the last mountain was almost vertical and last 2 miles for me were me looking like an old grandad with my knees telling me it was time to have a break.

We camped two nights and had a great time.

This is the start of a "Adventurer Club" for the children at the School. Mike, the teacher (middle top) is looking to raise £2000 for tents and training (certification) for a bunch of us parents so that it will be easy to get parents to take the children out for outdoor activities.

There is plenty of activities they can do around here, but as usual you need to be certificated up to the eyeballs, but we consider this worthwhile if we can get the school kids out on canoes, bikes, abseiling etc.



Lot of steep hills.
Going down.
