2018 WALKS

Here is a full listing of our adventures in 2018. We hope our final listing will be longer than 2017, but appreciate that Dad has other calls on his time, especially looking after Uncle Brian, which must have priority of course!

Starting the year Dad has lost fitness, so will need to build this up before we think about venturing on the fells and mountains. Little Eric hopes to make further progress with the Birketts and Wainwrights. Even so is still adamant that Dad does not have to repeat all the fells to complete the challenge. Maybe too we will repeat some of the Bowland Fells. This was Little Eric's suggestion last year, but did not transpire. The rest of us like this idea too.

Otherwise we look forward to just enjoying the wonderful countryside of Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire.
