Skipton



Here I am Rune
Distance 8.8 miles
Total 1252 Locks 70 Tunnels
Running total mileage 1766.8 miles 

Today’s trip took us from East Marton through to Skipton, for which the weather has held out perfectly, broken sunshine for most of the day. Getting into the rhythm for going down in these locks which, although shorter than most we encounter, are still reasonably OK. The intention will be to stay here in Skipton probably for at least one day, possibly more depending upon what is here. 

Once we leave here the next place of note will be Bingley with its Five Rise Lock Staircase and it’s Three Rise Lock Staircase.
