I was having a bad leg day which means absolutely nothing to most people but for us amputees it means just that …..For details.

Anyway the walk for today was a wander or hobble up to Milkhope in the Kidland forest. Just to have a look because I have never been in that particular area. And I knew that today I wouldn’t be going far.
Looking up from the river Alwin.
Just about to enter Kidland forest looking at Kitty Crags
Walking along the forest track looking towards Inner Hill
Starting the long climb up Dryhope Hill looking back down
Still heading up. Looking back down the track
Signs of harvesting (looks old)
Still gaining height, views are starting to open up
Milkhope, use to be a farm many years ago, now it is (or was) an outdoor centre
Close up
Views from the front “lawn”
And again
Looking across towards Kidlandlee
On the track on the way down
Still on my way down
Still heading down
Looking along the valley
Back on the main forestry road by an old sheep stell
Quick look back
The Yoke Burn
The Dodd
Clennell Hill
Something down on its luck (old sheep skull)
The river Alwin & nearly back at the car.
Bad day today but at least I got out and did something.& I can tick another area off my to go see list.& it go"s without saying that if i can do this on a bad day any one should be able to do it.
