Was this a bit too ambitious? / Clough Head / S1-Ep3 Hiking the Wainwrights

Hiking the Wainwrights - Season 1: Eastern Fells - Episode 3. Clough Head, The Lake District

I knew this was going to be along one but in the end it was perhaps a little too long! What started out as a warm calm day down in the valley turned out to be a blustery one up in the hills making the walking along this exposed route quite arduous at times.

But a fine day out nonetheless and I managed to have 99% of the route to myself making for a very peaceful - if a little frustrating and sweaty - day.
