Looking up Longsleddale

And looking down the valley

A memorial stone under the pack horse bridge climbing up the pass

Taken from the slopes of Adam Seat looking across the Gatescarth Pass to Branstree

Neil makes a call as soon as reception allows. The sun makes an appearance too

Adam Seat summit. The stone is also a boundary stone

Jed on the ascent to Harter Fell

The first glimpse of Haweswater

Another view

Almost a sheer drop here. Snow still plentiful too

Neil crosses a corniche. There is a 1000 ft drop to his right.

And thats the drop

A cairn but not the summit cairn of Harter Fell

The same cairn as above but from the other side

Looking down on Blea Water from Harter Fell

The summit cairn

After leaving the summit Ill Bell (left) and Froswick appear to the west

Looking south to Kentmere Pike. The weather is worsening too

Looking across to Froswick with cloud thickening
