I'm praying for the former. Last weekend was such a grind that I went back yesterday and did the bit from Swain's Head to the Wainstones again. It was cold, and a bit crunchy underfoot, but much more like it. Visibility counts for a lot, I hadn't noticed before but you can see Bleaklow Stones from Swain's Head. I wonder if it will be getting light [for us] about then? We'll just have to moderate our pace
