29/05/2011- Point to Point to Point walk

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

This walk was from the usual carpark at Clayton firstly up to Wolstonbury Hill, then to Ditchling Beacon, and on to Black Cap before returning to Clayton.

As usual I failed dismally to get decent weather, it looked for a while like it might rain and it was blowing at a reported 20mph, sure felt like more as it whistled across the downs, especially on the 4.5 mile return from Black Cap.

I did toy with also going to the Chattri, but when I got back to the junction there was no way I wanted to face another  miles with a hefty slope involved.

Not surprisingly the downs were not so populated as they have been in previous weeks,  only the hardy souls (mad buggers) were present and there was actually a collection of empty parking spaces at the beacon !!! :-O

I wasn’t sure how I would fare when I set out but Wolstonbury appears to be getting easier with practice 🙂

The walk wasn’t too tiring until the return from Black Cap when the journey was into the teeth of the wind which drained the old energy reserves, but grim determination got me through 🙂

This is a walk I would do again, but only when the wind speed is lower.

Today’s windy trek to the 3 trig points (Wolstonbury, Ditchling Beacon and Black cap)
