Here’s some photos from
Micky's Mega Muddy Meet. I think this should become and
ANNUAL EVENT!
Mickys Mega Meet Group meeting at the free car park next to the Dog and Partridge pub near Thorpe.
A few scenic shots.
The group descending the valley.
Mad Max, Ray and his dog Alfie, with the imposing Thorpe Cloud as the backdrop.
The impressive Thorpe Cloud.
Charlie running back. He must cover twice the distance on our walks! Lol
The group and Charlie ascending the Col at Bunster Hill.
Lynne enjoying the ascent…NOT!
More views of Thorpe Cloud.
First there was Holmes & Watson, then Batman & Robin, and Starsky and Hutch, and now we have…MAX & HOWIE! A series in the making if ever there was one! Lol
The path at the side of Bunster Hill was a bit treacherous due to slippy rock and a very muddy path. Lynne was close to turning back at this point but myself, Radder and Chris (Scarface) helped her to overcome it. Thanks guys!
Max and his ‘me Julie’
One of the locals. Happy as a pig in muck!

Looking down at Milldale from the ascent up to Newton Grange.
Lynne during the ascent from Milldale. She said this wasn’t so bad as it was gradual.
So a great meet and day was had. Thanks to Micky for suggesting and organsing the meet and walk. It was the first time I’d walked up that side of Dovedale from Milldale so I enjoyed walking over ‘new’ ground. Lynne and Charlie both really enjoyed it too.
Myself and Lynne would also like to say a particular ‘thank you’ to Mark (Radder) and Chris (Scarface) for coming back and helping Lynne on the edge of Bunster Hill. She was genuinely frightened and appreciated your help, as did I.
It was lovely to catch up with everyone and meet some new faces, even if the numbers made it difficult to have a proper conversation.
