Bessy Boot is one of the less visited tops, but standing on its own at the end of Glaramara it has some fine views over the surrounding mountains.
The path to its summit is steep, ill defined and and easily lost, and without a dry way to cross Comb Gill visitors who like the security of easy to follow paths will find this route not to their liking.
The reward for those who push for the top is a wild remote fell, devoid of motorways and cairns, but full of peace, tranquility and hidden corners.
Having made the summit, the way to Glaramara over the open fell is complex and would be a challenge in poor weather, many false tops and sheep paths to fool the unsuspecting walker onto steeper ground......what a wonderful place to get lost though :-)
