You will know both areas well as a former Muker resident. I went through there on my way south over Buttertubs to Hawes and beyond. Stunning countryside and beautiful weather.

Excellent, thanks for that Richard.
I used to count those leks and dog count the grey hens on those areas, good to hear they're still there!! Our best lek up here was a 12 but they've dwindled down to 5 this year.
I always used to see Ouzel in the Buttertubs pass and up Gunnerside Gill, cracking birds.
