Did you do the carving in the tree trunk?
Never been there but after a little investigation ie Google, it looks grand with the mountains very different in character to the Alps.
PS. Your bike could do with a lick of paint, obviously BMW.  :)

[size=12px]Derwent Dam was chosen by the Lancaster bomber pilots as one of the areas for practising their intensive low level flying and bomb aiming techniques as it was very similar to the  Germany dams they were going to attack.  They needed to practice as it was a new " bouncing bomb" (invented by Dr Barnes Wallis) . 🙂[/size]
