CARROCK FELL, HIGH PIKE, KNOTT, and

GREAT CALVA - 30 May 2007

Mosedale - Carrock fell - High Pike - Knott - Great Calva - Mosedale

12 miles, 2800 feet of ascent

 

The walk started in Mosedale which means 'dreary place'. Today? I don't think so!

Carrock Fell was one of AW's favourites. Partly because it was a tumulus? He seemed to like these!
