[with] Charlie [weather] Bright sunshine and high temperatures. - Boggy start to the route in the forest section leading to a grassy route up to the top. Amazing views over to the Isle of Man but the top was plagued by insects which meant we couldn't stay to enjoy the whole vista.Underestimated the effects of the unusually hot weather and were feeling rather shaky by the time we got down. Charlie took a tumble and gashed his hand. Were glad to get to the river and the shade!
