What a sociable walk led by Paul Shoesmith. A total of twelve of us (friends old and new) enjoyed a brisk walk up Great Whernside from Kettlewell via Providence Pot.
A good day out with occasional views and top quality gossip. We were able to feel it was a serious walk during the hour or so along the summit ridge with 40mph drizzle. A group huddle at a shelter in a pile of stones for lunch felt really cold and windy until we went out of the shelter and found what cold and windy actually feels like.
After crossing the road above Park Rash we contoured round to Top Mere then a quick 2 mile descent to the café in Kettlewell.

Great Whernside Walk meet report
Five of us plus Freddie and Stitch had a very pleasant days walking of about 9 miles over Great Whernside and down to Tor Dike and Cam Head. After enjoying the culinary delights of Syvia’s cake we descended to Starbotton before returning along the river to Kettlewell where more cake was consumed. The weather was mainly kind to us with only the odd light shower. All in all t’was a grand day out.
