A Coniston classic
« on: 15:36:43, 26/02/18 »
While recuperating from surgery I have started updating my blog, and last September I returned to the Coniston area for a fantastic day in all weathers. tested some kit, met some nice lads and paid my respects at a memorial.

A really nice TR John, some superb pics too.  It just goes to show if you trust the weatherman... occasionally he comes up trumps!!!

I may have a go at a similar walk myself this weekend..... depending on the forecast :)

Cheers

Love that report - I did this walk in reverse last year, with Wetherlam as the starting point, and my diary reads "a new favourite walk".

We did a fly over the memorial with the drone last time We were there, not quite a Halifax though  :)
