Walk 73: Two more OFs done and the Wastwater Screes revisited

Boat How summit, and the view therefrom. Fells visible, left to right: Pillar; Kirk Fell; Great Gable; Scafell; and at the extreme right hand side, Slight Side. Burnmoor Tarn below.

Wednesday 14th August 2013 saw me undertake walk 73, which permitted a mix of two Outlying Fells (Boat How and Irton Pike) and two of the ‘main’ 214, revisited for a second time (Whin Rigg, Illgill Head). The route took me up onto the top of the Wastwater Screes, and there were great views of Wasdale and Eskdale.

I seem to have stopped doing my accumulated count of mileage but with another 13 or so on the day it was a substantial walk. Read all about it on the walk 73 page, with plenty more pictures to enjoy. Hope you are having a nice summer….
