The Three Peaks of Yorkshire: I.T. Services Does the Yorks 3 Peaks
So, after successfully completing all three of the Three Peaks of Yorkshire, one per day, one in June, another in July and the final one in August, I pined away like someone lovestruck for another chance to be amongst the Ribblesdale mountains where the air is fresher, the grass somewhat greener and the weather altogether […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The Horwich Three Peaks
I’m sure that visitors to my website and blog all know of my desire or even fixation, to ascend Horwich’s Winter Hill. Likewise, it is no secret that I have been trying to traverse the moors that surround it for many years. Smithills Moor is tough with no discernable path, Belmont is up a soggy, […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Pendle, Old Pendle…
..You were in a right bad mood on Saturday, you ever-so-naughty hill! Well when I looked through the windows at 8:15 a.m. on Saturday, 20th March I couldn’t help but notice that there was an awful lot of rain around. I had resolved to do the Pendle Hill from Barley Car Park route with a […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Further Y3P training
Well, it’s been a while since I last did any blogs on here and it’s been longer still since I did any hill walking. The problem is that when you set yourself a challenge like doing the Yorkshire three peaks, one can be completely overwhelmed by the enormity of it and subsequently your body can […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
My Episode on the Yorkshire Three Peaks
Who would have believed that after my banging on relentlessly about doing the “Yorkshire Three Peaks” since September 2009 that it would be so long after doing the event before I wrote some kind of report on it? The perceptive reader would probably assume that I never completed the full challenge, and he’d be right. […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Cliché Grande
As October the 31st neared I thought to myself ’where can I go for a walk to celebrate Halloween?’. Actually that isn’t anywhere near true! In truth I had always wanted to have the ‘Pendle Hill at Halloween’ experience and last year Chris and I set off to participate in what is essentially a muddy […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Counting down to the 29th
…of January that is. Ever since December – yeah I know that wasn’t very long ago but humour me please, I have been counting down to the next time that I can get the chance to do Pendle Hill – the long way again. I had set a date of (you’ve guessed it) the 29th […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Spence where?
So, Saturday the 29th arrived and by ten passed ten that morning I was en route for Pendle as I had promised to myself. The weather was beautiful, especially for so early into year – compared to last January it was almost tropical. Maybe I would get a view from the summit this year – […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Where to walk on April 29th
The Royal Wedding will be on April 29th and this conflicts with my basic desire to never ever watch such an event – it will be on all the main T.V. channels all day long and this innevitbly forces me out of the house. Not that I have anything against HRH and Kate Middleton but […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Planned Walk for Sunday 6th March 2011
Great Hill near Darwen, Chorley and Belmont in Lancashire. For a long time I had wanted to ascend Horwich’s famous Winter Hill and in January 2010 after many postponed attempts I did it. Then in the summer of 2010 I incorporated it into a slightly longer walk along with the peaks(?) of Crooked Edge Hill […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
