28-07-2019-- Grange Fell with Alison, Ana and Jack |
||
|
|
||
|
We started out from Manesty and made our way towards King's How through Cummacatta wood. The weather forecast had not been encouraging but in the event we got only a few drops of rain. The rocky path was very slippery, however, and this proved problematic on the way back down, making our descent slower than expected. Nevertheless it was a very enjoyable and satisfying walk with some good views.
