    Watching this whilst nursing our hurt from the lovely Coledale Horseshoe. Thought that cow was a new puppet! Nice gate noises! Our favourite hiking youtubers navigating stepping stones like bosses! Scary sheep head! No paths, just bogs! Bowfell? Not the langdale one surely? A spot of rain? Its rained consistently these last few days in the Lakes! Oh mists we had them too! Trig points? Only one in every ten peaks we visited. Bogs that beat the kinder “bogs of doom”? Surely not! Its usually a thumbs up, an “mmm” is a new one! 27! Superbly done.

      Evening..yeah it's Baugh fell, it's surely to be the toughest of them all, we shall be leaving it til last...How was the Coledale horseshoe?. It's a real classic, great views all around, especially coming off Crag hill...not keen on that eyesore of a path coming off sail though...looking forward to seeing your video of it...keep on walking folks.

      @@atrampinthehills.841 thanks Steven, it was a great day. That climb up Grizedale was a steep one, particularly trying it just a few days after recovering from covid but once we were on the tops it was great. Was supposed to be rain and heavy fog all day. We got lucky, rained most of the day but we got some cracking views! Did Walla Crag for the first time today, what a beauty!

      Hi Michael...we always say that it's a shame when we lose height and head back to the valley, but not this time, it was good to get off this hill...it had very few merits, no outstanding features, lets hope the next one is better....That said the lower slopes and valley gave perfect walking.

      Hi Folks...Thanks...the pub was amazing, they have a candle on the bar to show it is open....history tells us that The George was at one time the vicarage for the nearby beautiful church of St Michael and All Angels and it was traditional for the vicar to keep a lighted candle in the window so parishioners knew that they were welcome to call.
      When in 1754 the building became The George, it was still owned by the Church and the tradition of lighting the candle whenever the pub is open continued.

      Yeah the carpenter is quite famous...Robert (Mouseman) Thompson (7 May 1876 - 8 December 1955), also known as 'Mousey' Thompson, was a British furniture maker. He was born and lived in Kilburn, North Yorkshire, England, where he set up a business manufacturing oak furniture, which featured a carved mouse on almost every piece.
      Thompson's trademark carving on the altar rail in Kilburn Parish Church, North Yorkshire
      It is claimed that the mouse motif came about accidentally in 1919 following a conversation about "being as poor as a church mouse", which took place between Thompson and one of his colleagues during the carving of a cornice for a screen. This chance remark led to him carving a mouse and this remained part of his work from this point onwards.....looking back i may have been a bit harsh awarding Yockenthaite moor 3 out of 10...maybe a 5...cheers les for your continued support.
