The Clerk and The Bishop

Walked on 14/12/2004

Start point: Thornthwaite (NY 220 264)

Thornthwaite – Barf (241) – Lord’s Seat (242) – Broom Fell (243) – Graystones (244) – Kirk Fell on Lorton (245) – Spout Gill – Brown How on Whinlatter (246) – Whinlatter Top (247) – Tarbarrel Moss (248) – Ullister Hill (249) – Seat How (Thornthwaite) (250) – Thornthwaite

Weather: Dull, overcast – gale force winds and driving rain.

Today’s walk started with a steep ascent up to Barf from Thornthwaite – I think I found out why it is called Barf going up there! The weather was absolutely atrocious – gale force winds and driving rain, especially on the exposed sections from Lord’s Seat to Broom Fell and across Whinlatter. The forest sections came as a welcome relief from the constant battering today.
