We're going back a bit now to the first bank holiday in May, but we have a lot to catch up on. John annually seems to do the Yorshire 3 peaks now, so this year we tagged along. Mum and dad had booked the camping barn at the bottom of Pen-y-ghent (Dub-Cote Barn). We had a great laugh and loads of people stayed, Ken, Bev, Denise, Dayle, Helen, Scott and kids. In the morning a load of other people turned up like Martin, Ashley plus lots of John's friends.
When Amy was in bed Dan and I headed out to Pen-y-Ghent, the light on the mountain was absolutely gorgeous. The surprising thing was that there was no one else out enjoying the scenery.
Helen, Harry, Dan and I headed off from Dub-Cote, while the others all clocked in at the cafe in Horton in Ribblesdale. Everyone made it up Pen-y-Ghent and we continued on to the Ribblesdale viaduct. Despite extreme weather conditions on the next two mountains dad and John completed the 3 peaks challenge in brilliant times (under 8 hours). Dan being Dan decided he wanted to do the last peak Ingleborough in the rain. Everyone had a great time and we all slept very well when we got home that night!
