FUJI 17,327 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Back on the tops today,took the usual tribe plus I took Swift along for a hike..weather was kind if not bloody windy on the higher ground,walked up to the summit of Starling Dodd then along to Great Borne then Herdus and back down to Bowness Knott at Ennerdale where I parked the motor..walked just over eight and a half miles..really enjoyed it,nice and quiet up there and great views too..Starling Dodd is just over 2000ft so no big shakes really but still for and old b*****d like me it's plenty lol... 4 Quote Link to post
