Boulsworth Hill 2020

 

Friday 5th June 2020 - Pendle Hill G/SP-005 & Boulsworth Hill - Lad Law G/SP-008

It was now developing into a lovely morning.  I parked at the end of the rough track to the south west of the summit.  This track affords comfortable, easy and rapid progress for the first mile of the walk, and covers around two thirds of the total distance.

Once the track comes to an end at a large turning circle, a rougher path cuts across a watery ditch and then climbs steeply towards the trig point.  The weather was now lovely, and the bands were in great shape.  As such, I ended up lingering here for just over two hours, making 45 contacts on 10m SSB, 10m CW, 10m FT8, 12m FT8, 12m SSB, 12m CW and 2m FM.
