The afternoon winter trek up High Cup Nick was certainly worth it. We encountered very few people all afternoon and had some really nice light as we climbed along the ridgeline to the head of the Valley.

Whilst at the top we did spot a couple of walkers make their way down the steep cliffs and then walk along the valley bottom, by the Gill. Neither of us had actually contemplated doing this before, we usually just retraced our path back down the Pennine Way to Dufton.

Having looked at the OS Map we saw that there was a track down in the valley, but it would involve a much longer walk back to Dufton.

Looking at the clouds on the far horizon it did look like we would get some late light shining up the valley before sunset. So we decided to go for this, in the hope of getting some different shots from down in the valley floor looking back up to the head of the valley.

The climb down was not for the feint hearted, being very steep and slippy, but it was the best decision we made, as we were treated to some great late sunlight and a few new compositions. So here is the first one and I'm sure John Bleakley will have some better ones from this part of our days 13 mile walk.

The best way to start the summer day is with a big cup of coffee in the garden.

The leaves hold water which little birds drink from and once they bloom the bees go crazy for the blooms. I planted it near fence to try to block deer, but they just come in a different way.
