j^i^ and on as far as ©reg JB^^^notts, and then take advantage of 



m the more gradual slope to Seatoller. 



I Grey Knotts is 213 feet lower than Green Gable. Having 



P arrived at the former, we continue forward, a little to the east 

 of north, still keeping under the western ridge and avoiding 

 the streamlets on the left-hand. The ground is roughish, 

 but in little more than two-thirds of a mile we reach the 



^5^ ^Jfejonister ^^q& road, and so easily down to Seatoller 

 and Borrowdale. 



ASCENT OF GLARAMARRA. 



(Direct to the summit and back is 12 miles of road and 7 of hill work. — 

 If the return is by Esk Hause, 4 additional miles of mountain). 



©latamarra is nearly due east of the Green Gable, which 

 we have just been describing, and 60 feet higher than the 

 latter. The Seathwaite Valley is between the two hills. 

 It is not one of the most interesting ascents, as it is a good 

 deal blocked in by surrounding heights, the only open- 

 ing being in the direction of Borrowdale, and that can 

 be at least equally well seen from Scafell and the Gables. 

 It is ascended from ^flst{)inaite, and, if our tourist has not 

 a guide with him, and does not know the ground, we advise 

 him to get clear of some of the intricate turnings at the 

 outset by employing one of the villagers to direct him 

 to Comb Gill. He will pass a mill, some pretty water- 

 falls, and then a sheepfold. From this point he must make 

 a sharp turn to the west under Raven Crags, and then 

 a steady climb of a mile and a half will bring him to the 

 top. Here we find rough ground, extending southwards, 

 with no great variation in the elevation, to .^^Ilan ©'rags 

 and Esk Hause.
