| Comments: |
Walking anti-clockwise we first
encountered Lingmoor Fell and by now the skies had broken. Pike of
Blisco followed and we were rewarded by excellent views from the
top. Unable to find the path down Wrynose Beck, we headed for Three
Shire Stones then followed the road to Bell Foot Bridge. Contouring
around Betsy Crag for Hodge Close and tracks to lead us back to
Elterwater. Despite using some roads the walk seemed to be enjoyed
by all, if a little tired at the end. With excellent visibility all
day it was a shame that the leader forgot his camera. |
