Setting off from High Lane above Kentmere village at 9.30 this morning gave us picture postcard views of the route ahead. The vicious wind of yesterday was n’o’but a memory as the sun shone and the laverocks sang aplenty over our heads.
Approaching Garburn Road
Never cast a clout ‘til May is out
Lamb chops for supper anyone?
Before the melting
Click to enlarge and you’ll see the Beacon at Thornthwaite Crag with High Street beyond
Lingmell End with Nan Bield Pass in the middle and Harter Fell on the right
Reaching the Beacon and still not a cloud in the sky
High Street
and finally… looking back at Mardale Ill Bell from Harter Fell on the way back
A superb day on the hills – covering 11.88 miles and 3,556ft back to car in 3.50 a leisurely round taking lots of time to marvel at the views and take lots of photos. Hope you enjoy this small selection.
Good luck EtU and TF for Tues.
