Hi all,
I got totally lost and am trying to work out where I went. I crossed the esk after the corner and then followed a path for some time to another river crossing. From there I went over a boggy section then up and left into the mist following some other runners. Near the top of the very rocky climb I lost them and believe I went too far right and off track, I followed east (but feel I may have drifted too far south) for some time avoiding various rocky outcrops. Some point later i thought i had gone too high and decided to descend and to see if i could find any other runners. Once I came out of the cloud I had reached the edge of a valley. There was a wall which had a Sheep gate on and there was a ruin not too far away. I then decided I was too low and turned back uphill following the wall. I went through 2 gates and then left over a stile (the sort that cross over at the top) and followed a path upwards back into the mist. After reaching the top of this hill and being unable to find anyone or anything I went right and ended up near some very steep looking cliffs. After climbing back up away from these and having been out for almost 6 hours I made a decision to follow a stream/river down and get out of the mountains. I ended up a couple of miles down the road from Wrynose where I blagged a lift from.
It is highly possible i was near hardknott when i first came out of the mist but im not sure.
Any Ideas
