This was intended to be another section of the Dales High Way, from Ribblehead to Settle, but was aborted after only a few short miles by a distinct lack of enthusiasm and a desire to be indoors as the wind howled, the temperature fell sharply and the storm clouds gathered. Slunk back to the station and sheltered as the rain battered down and the wind rattled the windows. Returned home to work on my Map Wall.
