ORCABER CAMPSITE NEAR AUSTWICK

FIRST CAMPING SINCE CORONA VIRUS LOCKDOWN SINCE 23 MARCH 2020

Thinking life will never be normal again, we booked into this site for 4 nights.
Weather was disappointingly not as stated but good to change the scenery.
Our first day we met up with a very old friend  and his new partner and enjoyed a lovely day in Settle having a coffee then a meal in the very strange surroundings of the pub with socially distancing in place.

Second day we walked about 7 miles on the Twisleton Scar near Whernside and across from Ingleborough.

Our last day misty and few sprinkles as we did a 5ish mile walk to Victoria Cave. They say they found remains of elephant, Hippo, bear, rhino spotted hyena, deer and Roman human occupation! Fancy That!
