Garsdale Hills 2-day backpack
« on: 14:39:00, 07/05/14 »
A 2-day circuit of the hills flanking Garsdale, a choice inspired by an overlap with a bank holiday weekend to avoid the influx of walkers to the well known areas - it was a good one in that respect, we saw nobody at all and the whole area was completely deserted. The tent pitch was an excellent one with a grand sunrise.

Fantastic stuff from an area I've yet to visit.
It's really great to see you out and about again Geoff O0
I feared you had retired from the backpacking scene :)

Thanks for the welcome back, most of the work is done in our new place and we should be out more.
It's a great area for lovers of spaciousness and very few people.

The tarn pitch was a real highlight and the bonus sunrise was a spectacular initiation for the new tent.
