I guess that people who go fellwalking are a different breed. I set this site up and am getting a lot of stick off my colleagues who think I too am mad. ...

Hi Jill<br><br>It's always a problem, more so for women, when deciding to walk solo or not. I think I've only ever come across three or four women solo walkers...
Re: your P.S. Roseberry Topping is only about a 15 minute drive away from my home and it took me nearly 40 years to climb it! I too head for the lakes. That...
