Mid-December in Ribblesdale

Wed. 16th Dec 09.

The last 3 days have been raw and overcast temp about 4c so not quite cold enough for snow but dry enough to get out for a walk and that what we did last Sunday Dec.13th. after a get together on the Friday evening for our annual Christmas meal.
This area of the Ribble valley is very scarcely walked especially in the winter time and a good map is essential because the paths are indistinct or non-existent. Our walk of about 7 miles was a circular walk from Bolton by Bowland.
