The summit shelter on Bowscale Fell

Looking north to High Pike

Descending to Mosedale via Bowscale Tarn

Bowscale Tarn was a very popular destination
for Victorian tourists!....

....and again

Heading down the River Caldew valley to Mosedale...

....and looking back up to High Pike

Passing through the hamlet of Mosedale
