Day 9 Hardraw to Tan Hill

The rain did stop at some point this morning, and we went to look at the Hardraw Force (waterfall), and it was spectacular. See the difference between the evening and morning pictures.

Evening


Morning


Set off at about 9am, my walking legs had left me this morning and was finding it really hard, Rob took the tent off me after about 30 mins in. Carried on the climb up Great Shunner Fell, and eventually reached the top, the highest point so far on the trek, however, the views were greatly hampered by low cloud.

Carried on to Thwaite and Keld and headed on up to the Tan Hill Pub. The food and hospitality are superb. So we are half way through in days and will be half way through in miles, tomorrow. Long day tomorrow. Day 9 complete.
