Ill Crag, Broad Crag, & Great End from Seathwaite (Borrowdale). 10miles, 3100ft,

A perfect day's walk in Lakeland!

Leaving the parking area in Seathwaite

The steep climb to Taylor Gill Force

Nearing the  top of the gill

Crossing Styhead Gill

Great End (centre) will be the last of today's summits 

Very comforting! 

The northern edge of Lingmell Fell

Great Gable and Green Gable with Windy Gap between

Derwentwater with Skiddaw behind

The Langdales from Esk Hause
(Probably the busiest high crossing of paths in the Lakes)

Ill Crag (935m) 3068ft will be the second of today's summits 

A little snow still in Calf Cove

Scafell Pike summit from Broad Crag 934m (3064ft)

Great End from Ill Crag

Looking down Eskdale from Ill Crag

Styhead tarn from Great End 910m (2986ft)

Zooming in on Scafell Pike from Great End

Descending Esk Hause to Springling Tarn....

....and then down Grains Gill

A final look back at Great End

Stockley Bridge

Arriving back at Seathwaite
