Buckden Pike


Distance: 7.74 Miles
Time: 4 hours

Today I walked the above route (marked in blue). Click the picture for a larger version.
The beginning of the walk was very hard, not because it was difficult but I had been out drinking last night and had no energy and felt ill. I recovered once I got to the top!

I wrote above that it took 4 hours, it only took 3 hours actual moving time but we stopped for over an hour on the way around (for dinner and me to recover).

For some strange reason the route has a weird blip on it, the bottom left of the map, it looks like we walked South then doubled back on ourselves (we never went where it shows??)

Anyway it was a nice walk and there were loads of Waterfalls at the beginning, worth going for them. Below are a few pictures, click them for larger versions!!

The rest of the pictures will be posted to my flickr site tomorrow.
