Woke up this morning to rain!!!
We set off and were soon kitted out in our full wet weather gear!
It was a tough days walking through torrential rain and hailstones that hurt! We also found it difficult underfoot as the paths were full of running water, turning into streams. In addition, the climbs were tough as well as the descents.
We covered 13 miles today and finally finished at 18.30. We then had to go back to collect Sharon's car from the Snake Pass Inn and finally headed off to our first cottage at Hebdon Bridge. It's great to have reached out first base camp, but a very late evening!
Toby's photo says it all.... An exhausting day!
Well done Toby !!
