Dorset based. Hiker, artist, lover of trees & drystone walls. Loves exploring the British Isles when I get the chance, particularly those mossy, rocky lands between the high wild places and civilisation. You may also catch me sat on a rock with my sketchbook.

I had a short walk up to Hampton Ridge early in the morning. The New Forest is lovely first thing, as it starts to get busy from about 9 am onwards.

Whilst not a huge climb by any stretch, there are still stunning views to be had.
