Coming up... ...Wanders from Wonderland

My challenge preparations unfortunately lack much hill work which I am sure to pay for when it is crunch time.  I am putting the distance work in though and my next post will be a full write up of my latest backpacking outing involving some East Anglian stealth camping.  For now, here is a taster...

  1. Fenland Hill training Carl.
    I know exactly what you mean.
    I have even less hills than you.
    Ah, the heady days of the Suffolk Munroes when we lived in Helions.

    But bog! I can train for that daily.

    Lo0oking forward to the write up now.

  2. You lived in Helions? Given that you also share my mummy's maiden name you've probably just found a distant relative!

    Have to say that I really love our neck of the woods (fenland included) for walking - just wish the local opinions on wildcamping were more like they are in t'Lakes and - even better - Scotland.

    Cheers Andy - hope you do enjoy the write-up.

  3. The Moment looks nicely pitched there Carl or was the frost doing an impression of cardboard.

    1. It was a tad frosty, but it wasn't too cardboardy. I find it pitches really well, unless I try to use the cross over pole and pitch it without pegs - that just doesn't work (or maybe I am doing something wrong).

  4. I still use pegs with the cross over pole. The wind has a habit of getting underneath otherwise.
