Walk Date: 13th July 2011
Walk Area: Lake District
AW in describing the walk up Gummer’s How in his Outlying Fells of Lakeland book says….
“The time comes to every Lakeland Fellwalker, in due course, when he has good reason to give thanks to Gummer’s How for salvaging his pride. Here is a fellwalk in miniature, a little beauty, with heather, a few rocks to scramble on, soft couches for repose, a classic view and a rustic Ordnance column --- just like the real thing; and all so easy of access from a motor road and attainable almost without effort.”
I don’t think anything I can write will add to that other than to say that the walk as per normal was finished off with a visit to the NT’s Fell Foot Park on the shores of Windermere.
Pictures from the day are now available to view on the website for those wishing to do so.
Regards,
Dave

I had been telling my hubby about the time I was in Morecombe when the Moby Dick and Hotel was hit by lightening and burnt down. My parents, sister and myself had just come off the Moby Dick when lightening stuck
