It seems very recently that we walked from Settle, over Giggleswick Scars to Feizor, then across the Ribble to Stainforth, up to Catrigg Force, and finally back to Settle via Langcliffe. Yet it was almost exactly three years ago. It was a fine, quite sunny day, but still with a slight chill on the wind so we wore light jackets. The clear light picked out the limestone walls of the lane, the fields and the skeletal branches of the late opening trees. Our path had taken us down into the valley from the height of Smearsett Scar, now a lone lump on the horizon, and we were climbing again to see the waterfall of Catrigg Force. As I looked back at the view I felt the composition needed a figure so I went ahead a little and my wife completed the scene.
