Latest Walk
29/11/08 - In the Pinewoods
The end of November and early December brought very cold weather to the North West. On the 29th November, I took Troy and Harvey for a walk through the Pine Woods at Brinscall. When I left home there was athick freezing fog, so I thought I'd gain some height and get above the fog. I did and it was a lovely day |

the way back the forestry work becomes more evident - and a large clearing
