Myself and Jess Palmer had a cracking day out last saturday, on this route.
We started at Barbon at 0720hrs and finally got out of that easterly wind on reaching Settle Market Cross at 1627hrs. Time taken 9hrs 7 minutes.
As all the 3 peakers will know, the conditions underfoot were excellent. This really is a cracking route across the Dales, getting you to the quieter areas as well as running over the usual suspects. Highly recommended.
