Another rain free day and we set off to park at Glen Mary.

Route

We set off up the small gorge which contains Tom Gill and leads up through woodlands to Tarn Hows and I agree with the “Navigator” this is the best approach to this honey pot.

From here we walked alongside the Tarn and then struck up for Black Crag.

A little further on at Park Fell we turned south west heading for Yew Tree Tarn and Harry Guards Wood and the car.
