A windy yet dry day greeted us for this quiet horseshoe walk.  The biggest challenge of the day was probably the parking with James eventually asking a local if she would mind him parking on her drive which she kindly agreed to!  Off we set at a decent pace and I don’t remember us seeing anyone else as we went over the likes of Yoke and Ill Bell on our way to High Street.  Lunch was taken sheltering behind a wall before we headed on to Nam Bield Pass where I was persuaded that I would fail to complete the walk if I did not continue along the ridge and over Kentmere Pike.  This I enjoyed as despite having done the rest of the walk many a time I had never made the effort onto the last ridge which provides nice views into the even less trod Longsleddale.

Thanks to all who came and were such good company
