Knott & Great Calva

The best days walking outside of Skye so far this year, superb weather and what an awesome place the Northern Fells is and so quiet. Saw no-one for the first 3 hours then sporadic encounters until reached Cumbria Way path where there were loads. Bit boggy in places, but nothing too severe. Great day!
