As much as we would all like our days on the hills to be
clear and warm, that’s not always the case: sometimes you just don’t have a
choice, and some times days that start off nice, end up bad and then there are
days which start off bad… and stay bad! But as someone once said, it’s not a
case of it being the wrong weather, just the wrong coat…
2019 took us from icy cold days of winter, Arnside Knott,
clear days and wet days in Scotland, the threatening of rain in Yorkshire and
mixed bags in Lancashire and the Lakes. We scaled small hills and big
mountains, and I had some good companions with me as well.
So, I did it! This was my new year’s resolution for 2019, to
climb a hill once a month, to give me the impetus to get on the hills more.
Shall I do it again in 2020? Oh… go on then…
Paul McAvoy (Hill wanderer) December 2019
