Silver How

Walked on 30/09/2004

Start point: Grasmere (NY 338 078)

Grasmere – Easedale Tarn – Blea Rigg (174) – Castle How (175) – Swinescar Pike (176) – Lang How (177) – Silver How (178) – Grasmere

Weather: Rain with low lying cloud.

Today’s walk was a damp traverse of the Langdale Edge and Silver How; the cloud was so low that there was no chance of a decent view today from the tops except for a brief clearing of the cloud towards the end of the walk.
