Day 9 - Keld to Reeth

We had to go back today, to do the last 8 miles to Keld that we didn't finish yesterday. We were up with the larks, ready to go, before 9.

 The long and winding road... that leads, to your moors..........................

 Ode to Cumbria!   Hello North Yorkshire!

 First dip  of the day

 This ice cold water is heavenly. Tastes good too!

 Miles and miles of nothing and no one!  Stunning.

 The floods have produced the most beautiful waterfalls

 Could this be a bridge too far?   No.  Only a few more miles to get back to Keld Lodge

 Another beautiful waterfall below the limestone cliffs.

 Aaah!!!  Keld Lodge.  Home from home for a couple of days.  8 miles in three and a half hours.  Time for lunch before we continue on towards Reeth.

The recent floods have caused landslips on the hills above us.

 Pheasants and rabbits everywhere.  We also managed to see a pure white pheasant who was unfortunately rather camera shy.

As well as lots of sheep, we have also encountered quite a large number of landrovers since we crossed over into North Yorkshire, which seem to be very popular with the local farmers.

........not that we're complaining.
