The Walking Goals - 2016

We have recently enjoyed some really exciting adventures; climbing Helvellyn, Ingleborough and Snowdon. We've got the bug!

So here's my walking goals for 2016!

The Climb! Mount Snowdon.

Since our Helvellyn adventure back in Summer, we have been loving walking. We are now well equipped with merino wool socks, better boots, proper walking trousers and all sorts of other bits and bats, and we set ourselves the goal of climbing Mount Snowdon this Spring.

So with a car full of stuff and snacks, and two equally insane friends (Mr & Mrs C), we set off on our Welsh adventure.

A Little Hill Called Helvellyn

Back in Summer, we went to the lakes with some friends and on our way home, decided to go and climb a mountain. "What a great idea!" we thought.

With nothing but a bottle of water and a snickers each, and with one member of the party in trainers and another in wellies, we set off merrily up a little hill called Helvellyn.

The Walker's Checklist

We're really in to walking, and when we started out we simply didn't have a clue. We climbed a mountain with no food, only one bottle of water, and a friend who was wearing wellies. We didn't know what we'd let ourselves in for, but we learned fast!
