Winter Hill – 3 January

A late afternoon walk up over the Two Lads to the masts where we saw hang glider pilots hanging about, as it seems they must, whilst waiting on a breeze. Rarely are we here on a Sunday afternoon and so we don’t know how busy it usually it but there were many like-minded people out catching the last of the sunshine at the end of the “mid-Winter break”, as it is becoming known.
