Same View Different Day.
« on: 13:22:17, 27/03/18 »
What a difference a week makes.


It just so happened that my wife and I passed by a few spots, on our walk yesterday, that I had passed exactly one week earlier, in rather different weather conditions.

Hope you like the pics, please add any similar experiences you may have.

Meldon Resevior 11 Deg C


Meldon Resevior -2 Deg C




Yes Tor Over Meldon Reservior.




Yes Tor From a bit closer.




Ok so the last one is other side of the reservoir, but the same view of Yes tor in the distance on both. MrsG's not daft enough to walk up that high.  :)

Not sure MrsG's phone does the colours justice.  It was a lovely day.  Still a few blobs of snow hiding in the shade though.  ;)

would that be a vintage Karrimor sack in the last photo?

It would indeed Glyno, well spotted.  I bought it in 1983, back when Karrimoor offered a literal life time guaranty on their gear.  Mind you it cost more in 1983 than my latest sack cost me in 2016. :o   It's been around the world and it's still in very good shape. Weighs a bit more than my modern day sack, but it's so comfy.  When I need to put plenty of gear in, for a long day out alone in the winter hills, it's the one I still take.  I love that it has several pockets so you can find what you want without emptying the sack.  O0


PS. The belt buckle is also sooo.. much simpler and easy to use than the modern ones.
