Another perfect day

Keep safe, keep well, keep walking.

Perfect weather for walking the Ridge Trail to Black Mountain - 8.3Km and 108m ascent with hardly a drop of rain. The views could have been a little clearer but the craic was mighty and we were joined near the end by a number of local cows.

Peatlands

Another perfect day for walking at Peatlands - wet, wet, wet - but the craic was mighty and by lunchtime it was dry with even a hint of sunshine.
Bored walk? Never with Cedars!
9.2Km and a commendable 18m ascent (just one foot short of 60 feet).
