Wishing you a Happy New Year from Pendle hill

Frid. 31st Dec. 2010.
                         Looking out of our bedroom window this morning towards Pendle Hill it looked quite inviting with it's layer of mist, it looked so atmospheric so a quick dash to the summit to blow the cobwebs away and get in the last walk of 2010.

         Looking across to the hill in the mid-distance, that's where I live


                                       Striding to the summit






                  Temperature on the summit a relatively warm 3c

Looking towards Longridge Fell, Beacon Fell and on the right Parlick Hill in the Bowland fells

                                   Towards the misty coast

                           Looking N.E. to the Yorkshire Dales



                               Back to the village of Barley

  4. Thank-you David, and a very Happy New Year to you too :-D

    What a brilliant way to end the year. You pick some very scenic areas for your walks but even on your doorstep you have wonderful views to appreciate and wander through.

    Wishing you both many more enjoyable walks and wild orchid sightings throughout 2011 :-D
