I stayed in Burnsall Yorkshire in a cottage when I was younger in the early 1980s twice - a beautiful area to explore the gateway to the dales - I went all over keen rambler in those days - Gods country......I was out by the Trough of Bowland a few weeks ago Joey, it really is stunning out there and it`s so close to us too.
That part of North Yorkshire is stunning too, but it`s pricey to stay there - around Grassington, Wenselydale etc

I lived in Clitheroe as my job took me there for 3 years - crap pay - the happiest days of our lives ....... the countryside was out of this world .......
About 5 miles down the road from there is a holiday village named Brom Aber, great wild camping spot if you go right up to the top of the camp and keep following the road, eventually you come to an old rifle range, great for wild camping up there hidden by the trees. If you know where the Rheinogs are then Bron Aber is basically opposite them on the main road.Two of my mates tried to set up camp outside Trawsfynydd nuclear power station, too much wacky baccy when they’d been fishing, I wouldn’t recommend that.
Was up in dinorwic last week, love it there.Putting this in here, the slate quarries are fascinating places, I've walked around loads of them Dinorwic is really nice and a great place to see mountain goat.
Dorothea is a nice one too, some go swimming there.
My great grandad worked in the Oakeley quarries in Blaenau Ffestiniog, so my interest goes back to that maybe.
Wales' slate landscape wins World Heritage status
The north-west slate mining area is said to have "roofed the world" at its height in the 19th Century.bbc.in
Last time I went I parked by where the bus can turn around, popular climbing area. I went up to the quarry and took the first incline on the left and over to Elider Fawr, back down to the reservoir and along that service road for a bit before heading back to the quarry, beautiful day.Was up in dinorwic last week, love it there.
That kind of thing looks great but would make me incredibly anxious about getting chopped up/ bummed by an axe-wielding Mountain man or savaged by a bear or whatever local wildlife there is.Working on the Colorado Trail - 489 miles from Denver to Durango. I'm doing segments of it when I can, it will take probably 2-3 years for me to find the time to do it all. So far, over the last year, I've done 4 segments for about 70 miles total. Three have been nice summer hikes with a few backpacking overnights thrown in. The fourth was a great spring snow shoe hike. Doing another segment in a few weeks - 14 miles with sparse tree cover due to forest fire a few years ago, so my son and I will do it as a full moon hike - night of July 23rd, should(?) be fun(?). Then a 32 mile segment in early September, taking it slow will make it a nice 3 day/2 night outing, ending in Breckenridge, CO, where my better half will be waiting to treat me to dinner after a nice hot shower.

That’s a great walk, the walk above the reservoir and down the other side is lovely, think it’s called marchlyn loopLast time I went I parked by where the bus can turn around, popular climbing area.

Nice - make sure you share the photos when you top out.
excellent - weather doesn’t look too bad. Doing anymore?Turns out it was a good time to go. Scotland is only slowly emerging from lockdown so it was pretty quiet. We had the peak of Ben Lomond to ourselves for about 5 mins before some Navy lads emerged out of the mist closely followed by 2 idiots who carried their bikes up. Good trip ...View attachment 134910 View attachment 134911
