MICA Travels are a group of family and friends that are dedicated to raise awareness of Bile duct cancer and sepsis, two illnesses that claim 1000’s of lives each year and are barely known about. I lost my wife; our sons lost their mother and many others lost a dear friend. We as group will be doing a series of endurance activities to raise money for these charities as a lasting memorial to Carol, so that our sudden loss is not in vain.

Ready to Start North Central Fells

Alarms were set for 7am..... and we slept through them.. Oops.

We got up, ate breakfast and left the campsite at about 10am. Heading out of Castlerigg Hall and turning right we started a walk we are familiar with, the ascent up Walla Crag.

Walla Crag was the first fell we did together as a team, and as it is the first on the route for today, we found the MICA heart on the silver birch tree, and s...
