Hampsfell

Walked on 29/01/2006

Hampsfell (OF) from the Grange Fell road

We had a shorter family walk today and took advantage of the lovely, clear weather to walk up to Wainwright Outlying fell, Hampsfell. Lying above Grange-Over-Sands, it offers easy walking with great views in all directions on a clear day like today.
