Malham Tarn & Estate in North Yorkshire was the setting for the 1951 film 'Another Mans Poison' starring Bette Davis. Some outdoors scenes were filmed there.

For some reason a few wires crossed over and I briefly imagined a crossover where Trazyn is snaffling stuff from the laundryverse for his collections

“…And here we have the Deep One delegation from the First Benthic Treaty, or as close as I could accurately get. They don’t show up in this dimension very often any more. While over there, that’s the last Presidential address before the Black Chamber removed the concept of the Executive Branch from the American psyche. And once Sannet gets the new gallery carved out I’m going to create a mock-up of Malham Tarn, where I’ll install the former All-Highest and her lover in a reenactment of their post-surrender embrace (note: the bit at the very end of the novel where they hug I’m not being weird here I realised that phrasing was awkward). They’re in the storage holds for now.

“And here is the Last Last Night of the Proms exhibit. Had to use a replica of ‘Lecter’, though, because the original messed with the stasis fields something fierce…it’s a shame, and reduces the veracity somewhat, but sometimes sacrifices must be made for the sake of practicality.

“Speaking of, please stop gnawing at me, Soul-Eater. It won’t do you any good.

“After all, my soul is long gone.”

Three days in the Yorkshire Dales

So.. a full Pennine Way adventure of two more weeks wasn't going to be it for me. Not on my own, and not carrying a slightly too heavy backpack with a two-persons cooking set and tent. But I didn't want to leave the UK without having had at least a peak at one of their famous National Parks, so I decided to do an easy three day's stretch on the Pennine Way in the Yorkshire Dales.

I traveled by train and bus to Skipton and, strangely, I had knee pain after my travel day, something which I had never had on the entire SWCP. I hoped a rest day in Skipton (staying two nights on a campsite) would fix it. I explored the town a bit and it turned out to be quite a nice town, lying next to the Leeds-Liverpool canal with lots of houseboats.

The next morning I took the first of the only two busses per day going to Malham. After recovering from car-sickness on a bench for a little while, I set off with a lot of other tourists towards Malham cove. The cove is quite well-known and indeed impressive, and there were some climbers climbing on it.

Behind the cove, towards Malham tarn, the Pennine Way got much quieter and I even had one little panic moment where all the straw-colored hills around me looked the same and I wished for a coastline to help me orient myself. But soon after, I stumbled upon a waymarker and I figured that I was walking just a few meters to the left of the Pennine Way. After that, wayfinding got easier.

The weather was beautiful but actually my knees still hurt so I wasn't feeling my best. I was planning to wild camp, but the landscape was so open, there were sheep everywhere (I think wild camping with sheep is okay but I wasn't entirely sure?), and I wasn't really feeling so much at home in this new landscape yet, so I decided to skip the steep climb over the Pen-y-ghent hill and go to the small village Horton-in-Ribbelsdale right away, where I would go the campsite that I had spotted on the map.

The Pen-y-ghent:

The campsite was great, it was run by an old man who welcomed me in a reception that gave off a Pirates of the Caribbean-like vibe and who handed me a tent label stamped with today's date after doing his all-paper administration. In the evening I had a nice call with Melli, who I am going to do a one-week hike in Germany with soon.

Because I had skipped a bit, I was now actually only a one-day stretch from my end goal, Hawes, away. My knees felt better the next morning, and as I was already awake before six, I thought I might as well do the whole stretch in one day. I really enjoyed the first bit of the hike behind Horton-in-Ribbelsdale!

After that, it got really windy because I was walking higher up on the hills, and the views weren't so varied anymore. The path was broad and there were some cars and a truck passing me. On a positive note, however, I saw a lot of the type of horned sheep that are typical for the Yorkshire Dales and a medium-sized bird with a long, arched beak.

I arrived in Hawes at around 1:30 and I went to sit into a café with lots of locals. I was glad to be out of the wind. In the café, I read the magazine 'The Yorkshire Dalesman' and found out that the bird I had seen was a 'curlew', a really rare bird that they are pretty proud of here! Sadly, it also said that it is in danger of extinction.

I did groceries in the lovliest little shop before I went to the youth hostel to check in and pitch my tent in the garden.

In the youth hostel I met two guys from Nottingham doing the whole Pennine Way, Jack and Shady. They asked me if I wanted to join them to the pub, and I said yes - I was up for some company actually. They were nice and chatty people, scolding me for having skipped the Pen-y-ghent, but envying me for having seen a curlew. We talked about all the ins and outs of backpacking/hiking and I advised one of them with knee pain to do warming ups and cooling downs (Yes, I'm a hiking nerd now;)). But it was evidence-based advice, as my own knee pain had in the meanwhile completely disappeared.

The next morning I was a bit jealous when they continued their hike on the Pennine Way. Britains oldest national trail is definitely something to come back for!

I'm staying in the hostel for two more nights now, doing some small hikes in the region, like going to two waterfalls.

🌟 Enjoy Stunning Moorland Views on the Malham Tarn Walk from Littondale

📷 Check out this walk just published on my website! I did it back in February, but I’ve finally updated and rewritten it. It’s my Malham Tarn walk, a beautiful route from Arncliffe to Malham Tarn.

🚶‍♂️ This Malham Tarn walk starts in the charming village of Arncliffe, nestled in Littondale, one of the smaller valleys in the Yorkshire Dales. From the village, follow Monk’s Road, gradually climbing onto the moorland with amazing views of Littondale. Head south-west across the hills that divide Littondale and Malham Tarn. You will soon arrive at the north-eastern shores of Malham Tarn.

🌄 After enjoying the tarn, it’s back over the hills again, walking north-east across the hills over Lee Gate High Mark, the highest point of the Malham Tarn walk, before descending to the hamlet of Arncliffe Cote.

🚶‍♀️ From there, a quiet road with little to no traffic leads you back to Arncliffe. End your walk at The Falcon Inn, one of the Yorkshire Dales' most famous traditional pubs, known as the original location for The Woolpack in the popular TV series Emmerdale Farm.

📏 This Malham Tarn walk, just under 12 miles (19 kilometres), offers a fantastic alternative route to reach Malham Tarn, rather than the more popular approach from Malham.

🗺️ Check out my website for all the usual statistics including heights and distances, where to park, and the recommended maps to use. Plus, a selection of my photographs so you know what to expect!

Fountains Fell

Our first morning waking up in hospital! We then headed to the small NT car-park/lay-by at the north end of Malham tarn. The walk started on boardwalk through marshland before joining the Pennine Way and heading up Fountains Fell. The climb was relatively gentle, the top was broad without much of a true summit marking Fountains Fell itself. Views would have been much better on a clearer, less grey day.

I want to see a whole series of these

Stupid Uruk Locations with Cassie Brewer

Dartmoor: “No internet access, no tv signal, shit dvd selection. Wouldn’t let me put on a play. Awful weather. Didn’t even get to see the feral ponies. Only bright spot was teaching my Cute Vampire Boyfriend how sex works, but I could have done that anywhere so I’m not giving the place any points for it. One star.”

Government Party Mansion: “Tacky, sleazy, guests treated the workers like shit, which gave me a horrifying taste of what life must have been like for all those Host slaves I used to take for granted. Things perked up when the centipede monsters showed up though, and it was kinda cathartic to see the politicians get their dicks ripped off. Two stars.”

Malham Tarn: “Would have been quite pretty if it weren’t for my dad’s war-host making a mess everywhere. It’d be nice to go back some day when my life isn’t on the line. Got to see my Evil Stepmother reduced to a skeleton by aforementioned Vampire Boyfriend, which was by far the highlight of the trip. Four stars.”

Whitby Goth Festival: “Gee, I wish I knew! Unfortunately my trip got cancelled after some ungrateful assholes shoved me into a prison camp on Dartmoor. N/A, one star to the UK government.”

Good god girlie is taking zero prisoners

In a lot of books like this the fantasy natives tend to be awestruck by the modern world, amazed by cars and modern food etc, so it’s quite refreshing to see CassieFirst just here like “this place is dogshit, one star on TripAdvisor”
