Off for a walk over Fairfield tomorrow and thought I'd pop in to the Priest's Hole. Have lived less than 20 miles from it and never visited during my 37 years in the Lakes!
Tomorrow is just a day out. I have some time off work soon and as per tradition i usually get away for a night or two during Jan/Feb. Would like to ditch the tent and bivvy here for the night but wondered how busy it gets, i know it can be a popular place. I'm hoping that people bivvy here during the summer and when it's due to be colder than a polar bears cold bits in a few weeks time, i should have some peace and quiet!
Anyone with any experience? Also wouldn't mind a very small fire (no trace etc etc) to keep the chill out - its out of the way (according to map) so no one should notice.
By not taking a tent i wouldn't want to turn up and find a small buscrafters outing in residence with no room for little old me and face a long walk down in the dark.
