Bleaberry Fell and High Seat

Took the same route up as we did for the Walla Crag walk in Jan 09. this time no ice, in fact the complete opposite hot and sultry. No wind as we gained height and we sat before the final ascent of Bleaberry fell in the warm sunshine admiring the view over to Catbells and beyond. A steepish climb soon saw us onto the summit with our next top, High Seat immediately south. A very wet path lead us across to boggy ground with large areas of cotton grass. The descent from High Seat was north west towards the Barrow Beck gully. At the top of the gully we decided, instead of taking the steep path straight down it is better to take the path heading down into the gully which then contours around out of the gully further down and then leads back to Ashness Bridge.
A nice day for cooling the feet in the stream at the end of the walk
