\u00a0On Saturday George and\u00a0I did the Kentmere Horseshoe in The Lake District. The weather was foul with a couple of\u00a0very heavy showers and low visibility virtually all the day. Still it was very enjoyable.<\/p>\n

<\/a>\u00a0 The image\u00a0 is the memory-map route that we fed into the GPS. For those of you who want to see where we actually walked (:-)) a Google earth file is here<\/a> for you to download. Unfortunately, as off this post the Google images are not of the highest quality, However, it still gives you a feel of the walk. We did about 1000 metres of ascent in 14 miles. Walking time of 4 hours and total time out of 5 hours.\u00a0\u00a0 George was struggling a bit\u00a0onthe \u00a0last ascent but I’m sure it won’t take him long before the boot is on the other foot!<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here is George towards the end of the day when we suddenly saw some bright light in the sky – Yes it was the sun about 5 hours to late!<\/p>\n
