Friday 09/10/2009. Today I am travelling by bus to Shap and then walking in to the Mountain Bothies Association bothy, Mosedale Cottage. From the Wet Sleddale road end a mile or so south of Shap village it is about a six mile walk in to the bothy. My plan is to stay until my food runs out (it's a 15 mile round trip to the Shap shops) and do a few Birkett routes. In the event I had four nights in the bothy on three of them I had the Cottage to myself which was wonderful, as was the weather which seemed anxious to make up for the rain and mire endured on my last two visits to Lakeland, so as ever, if you want good weather, just keep going back!
