11 or so miles in the Cheviots today. Changed my mind about the Hen Hole and Cheviot and decided to do Hethpool, Torleehouse, Easter Tor, Newton Tors, Hare Law, Hethpool. A good stretch of the legs, the weather wasn't the best, Windy (what in the Cheviots?), drizzly and overcast but not too cold. Saw some Cheviot goats, a couple of red deer, sheeps n lambs and came across some stubborn cows who decided to stand their ground and face me down on the path, a couple of quick blasts from the chest strap whistle soon had them moving out of the way but it was a tense couple of moments I can tell you. Managed to pick up a little calf muscle strain on the way down off Hare Law so decided to be sensible and leave Yeathering Bell for another time. All in all a nice refreshing walk and another couple of hills in the Cheviots ticked off the list.
