Route: from Croft House taking the bridleway above the valley to Clapdale, descending to the valley floor and past Ingleborough Cave. Through a hand gate and then climbing onto the hillside to reach the obvious cave on Long Scar. Then along the plateau to get a view over Crummack Dale and of Moughton Scars. Then back the same way but descending into Clapham Bottoms and back down Clapdale Drive past the lake and thence home.
Conditions: Initially sunny with blue skies. Later a cold wind, cloud and some drizzle.
Pub: Back home for Espresso Martinis before an excellent Christmas dinner chez Mark and Sandra.
