hi im steven graham

 

 

 

Our Next event is our 422 mile Hike.

 

We will be traveling by foot with our backpacks from our hometown Cheltenham to Lake Windermere.

 

 

 

Depending on if we stay on track, we estimated our journey to be Approx 422 miles, but if we loose our track and go of course, it could add up a lot of extra miles. We will be leaving Cheltenham on the 9th of August 2010 and have estimated the journey to take Approx 3 weeks including our return. This includes a short break there for recuperation. When we get to lake Windermere, we then have a 10 and a half mile open kayak trip up the Lake from Newby Bridge to Ambleside where we will pitch up for Approx a weeks rest.

 

 

 

We will try and do a few activities whilst we're there, and take a load of pictures for you guys to view.

 

 

 

So all in all, our key objectives are:-

 

201 mile journey to Newby Bridge,

 

10.5 mile journey in a kayak to Ambleside

 

1 Weeks rest and recuperation with light activities

 

10.5 mile return journey to Newby Bridge

 

201 mile return journey home to Cheltenham
