Hiking
Buck Barrow is a 549m fell in the Lake District National Park. A cairn on a rock marks the summit. In sharp contrast to its neighbour Burn Moor, the summit is a series of rock turrets that pierce sharply upwards like bristly pinnacles. It reminded me of an extremely toned down version of the Glyders in Snowdonia from some angles.
