it must be 45 years since i last did Clough Head and thought it would be a good idea to go via the same route, i soon came to realise i’m not as fit as i thought i was
Clough Head
this path (road) often has lot’s of 4X4s driving up it but all quite to day
its now on to the open fell
Skiddaw in the distance
a good path to follow
after the sheep the path rises quite steep a round the corner before heading diagonally up the face
not a place to be in mist one slip and you would go a long way down
back along the path before it goes up
Great Dodd 2miles further on but no today i have already activated that one
looking back along the path i think the fell in the cloud must be Scafell Pike because Esk Pike and Bow Fell are to the left
the 3 metre roach pole with a RH770 antenna in side a piece of plastic pipe
i had contacts with the following
G0TDM
G6LKB
2E0MIX/M
G4WHA/M
M0DXT
M0KPW
M7BUY
G0HIK
GM3VMB
2E0XUP
GM4VFL/P on a south Scotland SOTA summit
Skiddaw
Blencathra
Thirlmere
Keswick
back to the car it doesn’t pay to be the first one to park because the next car’s leave you no room to get out, i thought all i would have to do was drive out but no i had to do some fancy maneuvers to did out
thanks to all chasers
