Whernside

Back from the Alps on a Bank Holiday weekend - but needing to get into the hills - Sunday seemed our best bet to avoid the traffic queues if not the other walkers.
Two weeks time is my 'official' return to guiding / instructing work - so a reasonable test of where the knee is at was needed - as my first paid gig is a Yorkshire 3 Peaks (Y3P) - we thought a good steady jaunt up one of the three was called for - and Whernside is oh so convenient.

We set off in miserable clag - but the wind picked up and we got a good couple of hours before the cloud built - we got into the van just as the heavens started to open - great for us - not so good for the poor souls who still had Ingleborough to go. The knee held up OK - I think the full 24 miles will leaves me a little sore - but mostly that's just a getting back into the swing thing!
