Rest Dodd

Walked on 11/06/2012

Start point: Hartsop (NY 409 131)

Hartsop – Brock Crags – Satura Crag – Rest Dodd – Hayeswater – Hartsop

Distance: 4.4 miles     Total Ascent: 562 metres     Time Taken: 2 hours 15 minutes     Start Time: 09:50

Weather: Constant showers. 13°C

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.
