Silver How

Walked on 26/01/2010

Start point: Grasmere Church (NY 336 073)

Grasmere – Allan Bank – Silver How – Kelbarrow – Grasmere

Distance: 2.75 miles     Total Ascent: 325 metres     Time Taken: 1 hour 15 minutes

Weather: Overcast. 3°C

It was another grey day today though not nearly so cold as there was little wind. We had a quick jaunt up to Silver How from Grasmere and even this normally popular fell was quiet today – there was no one around up there.
