A few pics of our Easter road trip to the Yorkshire Dales. First port of call was Clapham...

We parked the car there and set off on the ~30 min trail walk to Ingleborough Cave...
We were given a guided tour of the Cave, complete with ridiculous hard hats. The tour went half a km into the mountain, and we saw all sorts of rock formations inside the Cave - the mushroom (left), the skittles (middle), and Queen Victoria's bloomers (right)...

Others lacked such inventive names, but were impressive nonetheless...


After the Cave, we continued 15 more minutes up the Ingleborough Trail...

All the way to Trow Gill, a limestone gorge/ravine...


And on the way back I may have slightly fallen over and got a bit muddy *ahem*. Anyway, lunchtime! And next stop - Wensleydale, to see Aysgarth Falls (and get cheese, obviously). The upper falls...

The middle falls...

And the lower falls...

We drove back through Malham and past the Tarn, but it was getting late and chucking it down with rain so we didn't stop. Back to Warry...
