CALDBECK CRAWL - 9.11.08
Beefy showers from the outset ensured that all ten starters left Caldbeck wearing full weather protection. Guests included regulars Dennis and Martyn and we were also joined by newbie Katie from Whitehaven who reduced the average age by a goodly amount! It was also good to see the return of Ian, now fully recovered from his injuries.The precipitation manifested itself as hail showers as we struggled south onto High Pike into the prevailing wind. After regrouping the party sloshed through the bogs onto Carrock Fell and enjoyed a brief coffee stop under the summit.
