North York Moors (bigish pics)

[stiz]

Some call it bleak and barron, some say theres just nothing there, some say its haunted, and some even say it buys the first round of drinks at the pub .... whatever people say i love the place.

looking to the right of the car park:

looking down the path:

looking along the path and across the valley:

the steps from hell:

looking up the steps from hell:

looking back, car parks over them thar hills:

another shot of the path:

Not sure if this will show, but the middle lump is scarborough castle, which is where one of the closest hospitals is ... so if you break a leg its a long walk!

This one i really like:

All in all a very pleasent walk

Mutters:

Jeff, who did suprisingly well for a dog that couldnt walk down the road last september! (he's a rescue dog, crulity case)

Nice shots! Looks like a nice place for good long walk. And hey, no snow, just the way I like it.

Nice pictures, I would definitely like to visit the moors, looks a lot like where I live in the Texas Panhandle.

Was on Ilkley Moor myself last week.

It is of course the Yorkshire Dales area and not the North Yorkshire Moors..

Then on to Hawarth Moor, Made famous by Wuthering Heights.

Haworth Village, and the Parsonage where the Bronte family lived.

Note the street name..

The moors and Dales are both great places, although I know the moors much better, haven't been to the dales as often.
Having been down here in Herts for 3 years at uni, as lovely as it is round here, I always really look forward to getting home to Tickhill (and a pin tin the local!). (Back permenantly in june)
