Van. i got really excited this afternoon when i saw you had posted again. .
i know i'm trying to cover a large area but lets face it theres so much to see. have you ever been to Essex i've lived here all my life and its got to be the most boring place ever!!
Nah I've never hd the plesure of heading South
i know i mentioned Aysgarth but we won't go there. done that too many times and to me its only something wow after a storm.
Totally agree with you on this one. Such a big deal is made of Aysgarth Falls but prsonally I find all the hype slightly exaggerated!
the girls want to go to Brimham rocks but we'll only do that if we've got time. it doesn't really appeal to me much now.have looked on the web for Menwith Hill now that is strange
Spent many summers days at Brimham it's such a strange place but excellent for Bilberry picking in late summer
whilst out shopping i saw another book on walks around bittain and it includes a walk from Grassington - Linton - Burnsall so thats one we'll be doing.
That walk is along the River Wharfe and will encompass Appletreewick if you travel a little fiurther down stream from Burnsall...
i've managed to print off a walk for the great shunner fell that you mentioned we'll be doing that.
Hoping to do it myself in August if I find the time...
i've been to white scar caves before and it is good. the site you directed me to has a virtual tour so i'm going to show the girls. i know they will love to go there.
The virtual tour is excellent on their website...gives you a real feel for the place but you can't beat the real thing...another for August me thinks
again if we've got time we'll see the ingleton waterfalls. we have done this before but to see so many waterfalls in one place.
Excellent little walk
little bit sneaky mentioning buttertubs pass. thats a bit further up from hawes. i know i'll go there we've got some great pictures looking into the holes.
I'll say no more except SWMBO hates the road...too steep a drop

I'm a safe driver but that ain't good enough!!!!
my hubby always does too much driving when we're in yorkshire.i'm always like lets just go a bit further once i made him drive from aysgath falls to the lake district
I'm a fan of the lakes especially around Glenridding as Helvellyn is my favourite of all mountains to climb. Striding edge is fascinating and you just can't get enough of that view....The temptation is there to head West but I try to refrain as the dales have plenty to offer and you can easily get bogged down with a trip to the Lakes....
thanks for all your help. it really has been very well appriciated. medot.xx
You're welcome....If you need anymore info or have any questions just fire away and I'll see what I can sort....
I know you'll have a fantastic time and look forward to seeing and hearing all about it.....you leave before me so I'll be glued for your report and pics etc....
Regards
Van
