Day 4 continuing a circuit of some of Lakeland's central fells & valleys 

Dungeon Ghyll to Wythburn 

via Stickle Ghyll, Blea Rigg, Sergeant Man, High Raise & Greenup edge 

8.5miles 2500ft

Leaving the bus from Ambleside at the New Dungeon Ghyll hotel Langdale

Starting the climb up Stickle Ghyll to Stickle tarn

The falls were looking good after all the rain

Looking back down Langdale

Lingmoor fell from last week's walk....

....and again from Tarn Crag....

....arriving at Stickle tarn with Pavey Ark as backdrop....

.....and Harrison Stickle

The outflow from the tarn into the ghyll 

Stickle tarn, Harrison Stickle & Pavey Ark

....it's those two fells again from Blea Rigg this time!

The fells to the south from Blea Rigg summit

Dramatic skies from Sergeant Man summit....

....and then on to today's highest point, High Raise summit 2500ft. Wainwright describes High Raise as the most central fell in Lakeland

There were cloud inversions in all the northern valleys

Zooming in on Skiddaw on the horizon

Now on the descent from Greenup edge into the Wythburn valley

Looking back up the valley

Finally waiting on the roadside at the Armboth turn for the bus back to Ambleside

An excellent day's walking on which looked to be the only day this week without rain!
