rossett and esk from old dungeon ghyll
Переглядів 175День тому
a mid week walk, not the walk i originally was hoping to do, but still a great one all the same, trying another route up to rossett pike from the langdales, up rossett gill, the way i ended up taking back down would be a more boggy affair in better conditions, so id still like to do my original idea of a route but maybe on a longer summer time day,

due to the not so favourable forecast, we decided to stay relatively low, so this was a great choice, Glenridding Dodd is a great little hill for views, and Chris and Vic hadn't done these 2 wainwrights yet, not that either of them are baggers, and luckily the conditions today were better than we expected, ill add a link to my os maps where you can hopefully download a gpx of this short route e...
