>>Hello Tony
Thanks as ever for all the lovely pictures recently - and well done for your wisdom in getting on the fells so early before the heat builds (although you seem to have had more damp days than us down in the south - we've forgotten what rain looks like).
I enjoyed the comment you shared from another follower, mentioning Hollows Farm campsite in Grange. I too have wonderful memories of camping there on numerous occasions in the late sixties and early seventies. It was pretty basic, but so friendly and so beautifully situated. I had one of my best mountain days ever from there, Easter 1974. My fiance (now husband of many years) was away so I went to the Lakes alone and climbed Scafell Pike via the corridor route in fine dry weather. A long day but an utterly glorious one.
Best wishes Judith and Ed in Sussex
