Climbed the North Face of the Eiger in under 3 hours - chuffin` `ell - takes me 3 hours to get up Helvellyn with a following wind - usually the digestion process of the previous evenings curry.

That looks an impressive sight, The Festival of Light above Braithwaite in support of victims of the Nepal earthquake. I saw the one last year on Catbells, wish I`d seen this one.

Did the Mallorca 312 on Saturday-spent most of the time looking at the tarmac but will post a photo of the stunning views around Deia when the site publishes them.

Surely the previous night's curry would assist in some form of Jet Propulsion to help you on your way up?

Mark it isn't as bad as it looks it was bone dry today no wind a lovely walk it's a different beast when wet though and I would never set foot on it in those conditions.
Skye looks fantastic hope you enjoy it get that camera out
Yorkie Blue replied the topic: Re:Nice day on the fells today
The Isle of Skye is a great place MRF, you`ll enjoy it, good hillwalking to suit all, if you get the chance head to the Quiraing at the north end of the Trotternish Peninsula, an awesome landscape.

Taking in a few different off main path routes up fells atm this one from Grisdale Valley to Dollywaggon Pike (Peak in Centre of Pic)
Ideal if you like a bit of solitude

Me and the other three members of the Tufty family fancy having a crack at the hike to
Preikestolen
(Pulpit Rock) when we call into Stavanger next month. To be honest we wouldn't normally do that sort of thing but the great photos and stories on this thread have acted as inspiration. Anybody else on here been?
If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off.

Ah the lovely Langdale. Worked at the NDG many moons ago, and the NT campsite, happy days.
See they were trying to have their own campsite in the field in front of the pub one year, they still doing that? Wasn't keen meesel, felt it dragged down the vibe of the place. You got a good day for it.

Nice Day on the Fells Yesterday.
Been let out of the padded cell work for a couple of weeks, so the last few days spent hillwalking on the Isle of Arran, tomorrow to Islay to stagger round the distilleries then to Jura to crawl over the Paps, returning to the mainland and heading up to Torridon, perhaps with little excursion into Glen Coe on the way up, for a bit more strolling the hills.
I like Alans` idea of showing some peeve / scran on his posts, so a photo of my and Mrs YB`s well earned drink in the beer garden at the Corrie Hotel after a thirsty descent from Goatfell.

Interesting Alan that I've mentioned on 2 occasions the negative effects of unrestricted tourism in parts of the Lakes and you've never got involved!
For someone who spends so much time on the fells it raises questions for me. Are you local? Have you retired and bought a place? Why don't you get upset with a 80% holiday home situation in your Homeland? I've tried to discuss Langdale with you before but ironically don't seem to share my passion and ony want to share your photos and Conservative Party views!
Mods, wrong post. Can you remove to Alan s hiking one please. Cheese

The New Dungeon Ghyll now use that field as a car park fiver a day plus but you get 10% off food and drink on production of your slip decent value.

Bit of a tan topping up day today Starting off at Kirkstone Pass and a wander back to High Street taking in Froswick, Thornthwaite Crag, Ill Bell and Blea Water.
I need a new pair of feet

Spent a very pleasant, mellow day yesterday visiting the Laphroaig and Ardbeg Distilleries, today a gentle stroll over the Paps of Jura - I wish !!! - one of the toughest but most rewarding hillwalking days me and Mrs YB have had.
Beinn Shantaidh
Beinn a Chaolais and Beinn an Oir from Loch an T Siob
Required a few hours re-hydrating in the bar of the Islay Hotel after the day out.

Had a few days at Glentrool camping..horrid weather but managed a decent walk to the top of The Merrick and White Laggan Bothy on the Southern Upland Way
Far better than have to suffer hearing about another defeat .

A couple of Schnauzers did a runner into the fog Nr Haystacks, Buttermere not so long back and they were missing for a few days think the owner found them by the smell of cooking sausages somewhere near the point they ran off.

This one was a dogue du Bordeaux. Not sure where it was exactly but somewhere between ullswater and thirlmere area. Looked a big lad as well you'd have thought he would have been spotted before today but suppose its a bloody big area and not sure how far he'd gone from where he got lost.
