The second of three short films produced by James Madden of a group of young boys walking the Pennine Way from Leyburn to Hawes in Wensleydale during October 1973. In this film, the group travels through wet and misty countryside eventually arriving at the Youth Hostel Association (YHA) hostel in Hawes.
In the town of Leyburn, five boys in waterproofs walk along a rainy road, cross a small bridge and pass The Crown Inn. Out of town the larger group hike along a misty road and then a muddy track. They stop to check their map and eat sandwiches against a nearby dry stone wall.
Their meal over they continue along misty and wet moorland tracks stopping on a bridge to look down into the river below. They stop again beside a cross built on the moors.
The entrance of the Youth Hostel Association hostel at Hawes changes to show the building the following day. In Hawes itself a milkman makes a delivery as the boys walk through town, one boy, wearing a tartan hat, drinks from a can. A montage of various shop signs is followed by s boy writing a postcard and another talking to the camera where the film ends.
