Title: Wish me Luck!! Hiking up Great Gable on Sat
Post by: richardirv on 14 August 2008, 14:43:21
I am not a walking person really but do the odd one, ussually only if there is a Pub half way!! quite unfit at the moment but trying to improve!! you know how it is!!

Driving to Wasdale (Lake District) early doors on Sat morning, Setting up camp then Great Gable here we come. This will be my first mountain hike and I must say I am actually really looking forward to it. Only downside is I don't think there is going to be a pub on the top of the mountain. hehe  ;D

Just hoping my legs will hold out!!  :o

Wish me luck!!

There may not be a pub at the top but these stainless steel Thermos flasks hold neally a whole botle of scotch :D

Good man, take care and watch yourself.

Hehe, unfortunatly I don't do spirits!!

There will be plenty of beer waiting in the tent when we get back though!! Probably the only thing that will keep me going!!
