The view down the valley towards Hartsop 15 minutes in to the walk

Gray Crag. The summit is the one in the distance.

Looking down on the Filter House below Prison Crag from the very steep climb up Gary Crag 

Another view down the valley from the ascent of Gray Crag

The ridge in front of Brothers Water is our descent from Hartsop Dodd - and it is much steeper than it appears in this photo

As we near the top of Gray Crag this is the view back down the steep ridge we have climbed

And looking to Hartsop from the same spot 

...and Paul admiring the view from the same place.

Stony Cove Pike summit (Caudale Moor)

And then the cloud came - this view is looking to Hartsop Dodd from the descent from Stony Cove Pike

Looking across to Gray Crag and probably the steepest dry stone wall I've seen (both at the bottom and the top).
