| Looking south back to Great Dun Fell |
 |
| Looking down into the Eden Valley |
 |
| The new cross-shaped shelter on the summit of Cross Fell |
 |
| Cross Fell summit trig point at 2,930 ft. This is the highest point on the Pennine Way and the highest fell in England, outside of the Lake District.Cross Fell has the only 'named wind' in Britain, 'The Helm Wind', which can blow for days from the northeast and a local reported it as "sending Brussels Sprouts ricocheting round my garden like machine-gun bullets"! |
 |
| Sunlight on the town of Alston from the summit of Cross Fell |
 |
| The bothy just below the summit, named 'Greg's Hut' (see below) |
 |
| A welcome warmth and shelter in stormy conditions! |
 |
| Descending into Garrigill and the end of this section of the Pennine Way |
