off towards the Winter Hill mast

My dad took this whilst running behind - or the mast is about to fall down !

if you wanted to know what it looked like at the top of the Pike !






watching some birds

hmm.... someone thinks that using a 4X4 is fun but it ruins the surface and destroys the environment




This is the mast






running across the grass
looking for water - the sphagnum moss is for drinking it from




Coal - one of the signs of the old mines ,


found some old iron
I use a technique to get feeling back into my hands after getting them wet
this old mining area has been destroyed by the water authorities for no known reason yet they allow 4X4 drivers to destroy the environment ?
