Dales
05th March 2014
Ingleborough from Clapham.
Today came with a cold wind, it was grey and with extensive views across to summit of Pen y Ghent. Added to this I heard my first skylark, saw a number of Golden Plovers on the moors plus some unknown black/grey bird (Tern?).
The Yorkshire Dales - "God's own country". The ancient, wild and windswept landscape seems to roll on forever, as steep, narrow backed fells emerge out of the bedrock like ancient dinosaurs. This place feels old.
