More fabness....love it! :cool:
Excellent Stolly
Awesome snaps Stolly & as usual always a cracking read.
very nice indeed, impressive, you go on some great runs, i'm jealous to say the least
That's one of my favourite local(ish) areas to go running. If you're back in the area the Windgather race route is worth a look round as well, http://www.fellraces.co.uk/. I usually park at Erwood resevoir as well, and then run the race route from halfway round.
That website looks very useful!

Once at the highest point, the absolute best view ever of Pen y Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough all together opens up. Unfortunately to get them all in the same frame with my camera is just too wide an angle to see them properly, other than as small lumps on the horizon, so here's just Ingleborough, Simon Fell and Whernside on their own

Looking back over my shoulder on the final climb up the back of High Hill and pretty much all the countryside that I've just looped around is there to see.

The view just before dropping straight off the steep side of High Hill:
