BIrkett Bagging.

I was keen to get back out into the hills even though I was not 100%.. The weather was clear but the wind was cold. I plotted a route over 5 Birketts. The most difficult part about it was getting the preferred parking spot (in the lakes on a bank holiday weekend)  Jess was saying in 2023 there were 18million visitors!
Luckily Mr & Mrs tourist rarely get up at the crack of sparrows fart so we were fine.
The hills in question are in Matterdale on the north side of Ullswater.  The paths were pretty distinct and the bog was reasonable, I took this panorama looking south across Ullswater towards Place Fell. This coming week we hope to be over that side tidying up a few more of Bill Birkett's 1000footer list.  We stand at 366/541 at the moment.
