2 miles relatively gentle ascent to the start of the climb to the summit |
Waswater is the deepest of the lakes 74m 243ft |
Part of an elaborate art work on a high grassy plateau |
The scree leading to the start of Lord's Rake |
Danny starts the climb up Lords Rake to the 1st col |
Danny arrives at the col with the Mickledore ridge leading to Scafell Pike behind him |
The path then continues to the 2nd col.... |
....and then crosses the amphitheatre to the ridge leading up to the summit |
Danny standing on the 2nd col with summit of Scafell Pike now in view |
Great Gable |
Scafell summit, England's second highest mountain 964m (3164ft) |
The view west to the coast with Waswater and Burnmoor tarn |
Danny in contemplative mood after lunch on summit. [Do you mean he's knackered! (A.D.)] |
Wasdale Head from Green How - almost down!
Thanks, Danny for your company on another exhilarating walk and for doing all the long drive. [Michael]
