Central Fells wander
Posted: Mon May 08, 2017 10:23 am
I had Friday as leave for a splendid day on the Central fells on what I guess is an unusual route.
I was keen to climb the direct route of Eagle Crag again but didn't fancy the longer drive to Borrowdale as I was due back in Preston by 6pm to play football so was looking at alternatives.
With a dry spell, I realised I could start near Armboth and climb over High Tove into the Borrowdale valley and include Grange Fell and Great Crag in the day as well with the return route being over Greenup and down through the deserted valley of Wythburn (again one for a dry spell).
Beautiful sunshine but very windy throughout so glad not to be on the higher fells today.
