Fixing or ruining fells?

[Ilkley Swimmer]

Come to think of it, there used to be a lovely cairn on Ilkley Moor near to where the stones have been deliberately scattered all over the little footpath. So it seems that those who lay down paving slabs also destroy cairns. When an attempt was made to rebuild the cairn it was knocked down again.- a bit like someone kicking over a sandcastle on the beach...

... as I descended the path an awful sight greeted me. Large black sacks were scattered everywhere. They looked like huge versions of those bags which some dog-owners leave lying around (don't get me started on that topic!). Closer inspection revealed they were full of stones in preparation for yet another wholly unnecessary footway building exercise.....

During the Langdale Horseshoe race (which was great!) these bags - sadly - were still there. What was even more disheartening was that they are crumpled and soggy now just like huge versions of the dog poo bags....
