Day 6 - Patterdale to Burbanks, 7 hours, 20km

We headed off from Greenbank Farm with lambswool in our boots. It was drizzling and the weather only deteriorated. We climbed 1300 up Kidsty Pike. It was hard work and by the time we reached the top there was a glad blowing, it was raining intermittently and fog had reduced visibility to around 5 meters. Very disappointing and quite scary being on the top of a mountain with such limited visibility and gale force winds.
Eventually we descended to the Haweswater Reservoir
