The track starts halfway between Orthwaite and Horsemore Hills. Halfway between Orthwaite and the start of the track is a space where there is room to park. It is not a very big space. On a nice day you would have to get here early as three cars would pretty well fill it. It was not a nice day. It was raining. It was windy. Everything was in cloud. It was, to be fair, nicer than the last time I was here (see 90 below) but that is damning with extremely faint praise. I set off down the track, planning to visit the two Calvas and carry on to Knott. I didn’t. The summit of Great Calva was very miserable indeed. Getting back to the col between here and Knott, I thought, maybe not Knott. So back down Hause Gill I went.
