Sykeside / Brothers Water to Silver Point, Ullswater

Another hazy sunny day for a low level walk from the campsite, past Brothers Water and on to Silver point on the shore of Ullswater.

The Knott and High Street, Eastern Fells.

Another hazy but sunny day for the climb up to High Street, via The Knott.

The haze is caused by pollen in the air (from Alder and Poplar trees in this area) and the light winds and high pressure physically preventing the pollen particles from rising into the upper atmosphere.

High Street is 828 metres (2,717 ft) and its summit is the highest point in the far eastern part of the national park. The fell is named after the Roman road that ran over the summit.
