Walla Crag to High Tove - The Central Tip

The forecast for today wasn't too hot, with low cloud forecast & a chance of rain. The four central Wainwrights on the Borrowdale/Thirlmere watershed where picked as hopefully they would be below the cloud & the walk could easily be cut short. As it turned out the cloud was higher than predicted around 2000ft and the rain never appeared. High Seat to High Tove is a pretty wet crossing & is best left till the ground is frozen.
