kentmere horseshoe

[MIKE LEVER]

A fantastic walk and a great way of bagging 9 wainwright's.we started the day in zero viz from about 500 meters hitting the snow line from about 600 meters getting thicker as we climbed higher,navigation was difficult with the snow covering the paths.
By time we left high street the cloud began to lift giving us fantastic views for the rest of the day.
would highly recommend this walk.

Did this with Alan and Steve on a hot day and thought it was hard work, in the snow you deserve a medal, well done

Like Susan I too did the round in hot weather. It's a fantastic day out but a pity the weather wasn't kinder to you. Still, it is good reason for a return trip.

That's the beauty of walking the weather makes the same walks totally different.
