Blawith Knott

Walked on 07/04/2010

Start point: Woodland Fell road (SD 256 879)

Woodland Fell Road – Blawith Knott (OF) – Angus Tarn – Tottlebank Height (OF) – Woodland Fell Road

Distance: 2 miles     Total Ascent: 156 metres     Time Taken: 1 hour 30 minutes     Start Time: 14:30

Weather: Sunny, 12C

It was really quite warm and sunny today, perhaps this is the real start of Spring? Everything seems to be beginning to bud and all the daffodils around are in full flower – anyway, it was good to get some fresh air and not have to bother about keeping dry for a change.
