BASSENTHWAITE AND BEYOND
12.11.06 BASSENTHWAITE AND BEYOND It was a walk of three halves !! – the first being a boggy and muddy stroll along the lakeside to Mire House. This was followed by a strenuous ascent of Carl Side and mighty Skiddaw then descending for lunch by Whit Beck. The third half saw loins girded for the long traverse under Lonscale Fell to Skiddaw House then past Dash Falls returning to the cars after 8 hours and 20 miles via Bassenthwaite village as darkness fell. |
