Today itinerary gave us different options. Again Ann told us about going up and summiting
Scarr, she did warn if there was any fog to skip the summit as there would not
be any views if it is foggy.
Off to the same deli shop to pick up lunch for the day, plan
is for lunch on the summit. The trail
actually starts 2.5 km back from where we are staying, decided we did not need
the extra 2.5 km and just started from outside our B&B. A little problem finding the start of the
trial (this has become a tradition for us), but we are off. Gorgeous views today, lots of heather again,
and lots of visits from sheep. The
weather held out for us and we did do the summit of Scarr, it was really windy
but found rocks to hide behind for our lunch break.
We got a little lost at the end of the hike, ended up in a
campground, and then someones B&B back yard. They got us sorted. Finished the walk with a 3km road walk to a
pub where we were being picked up by van to go back to our B&B. We hate road walking, but the good thing
about here is there were tons of blackberries to snack on along the way. The 2 sisters from Vancouver came into the
pub shortly after us, they had gone back and done the start at 2.5 km away, so
an extra 5 km than us and they took the same time, slightly younger and in
better shape than us!
Van ended up picking up 6 of us, drop off at our B&B
then off to pub again for supper.
Another early night.
Picked up lunch here again at this deli, they are not open for supper
