A Forest Of Windmills
by Aidy  21 Apr 2016
My third and final small hill of the day, from my local 100, and the weather was getting progressively worse - not dramatic, stormy weather, which would have been preferable, just dull, grey skies and intermittent drizzle. Its hard to judge a hill under these conditions as nowhere will look at its best. To be honest, Stranisk probably needs all the help it can get, as it falls away gradually from the summit, with no spectacular views on ground far below. It is also completely dominated by windmills - I can't remember encountering so many on any other hill. It was almost a spectacle in itself. I used the resulting access road to get almost to the summit, and it led directly under the blades of several - always a slightly disconcerting experience I find, but on this occasion I was glad of the mild excitement it provided!
