Some notes on the day

Dave took us to yesterday’s finish point. Had a fairly straightforward downhill walk into Glaisdale and then onto Egton Bridge where we had a couple of pints at the Horseshoe Hotel at lunchtime. Continued the relatively short distance to Grosmont, and again continuing beyond our stopping point. Did the horrific climb out of Grosmont and then across the moors to the A167 and down the other side to Littlebeck where we finished.
