09.03.2010 - Latrigg

The weather was lovely today, so we decided we would go up Latrigg, as it wasn't too challenging, and the last time we went up the paths were covered in ice, so it took us hours. We started off up Spooney Green Lane, at the back of the Swimming Pool. This takes you across the bridge over the road and into the ascent. Half way up we cut across to the flat path, and up the wooden steps. We went through the wood, which was very, very dark, and then across to where we had all fallen over last time we went up, because of the ice. There were ALOT of sheep on the top, which Ron didn't chase, because he's been trained not to. The views on top were amazing (see the photos). We sat on the bench at the top to eat some bananas and drink some hot chocolate. We came down the zig-zag path then back through Fitz Park.
