Route Map

The weather was a little different to last time I was out, the rain was light but pretty well constant today and most of the tops were hidden beneath the murk. This was a made up on the go walk, I hadn't intended coming here at all today but it sufficed given the conditions and being a fair weather walker I didn't get as far as I had intended at the start either.

High Street is under the clag above Hayeswater, Gray Crag to the right. The distinct path is the one I used in descent from Hayeswater.

Not, it turned out...as the clag clears briefly.
