The pictures on these pages are either Local or Holiday pictures that do not appear in the walks.

If I remember correctly this walk was done after a few days of quite heavy rain making some of the paths quite slippy.

White Scar , Whibarrow from where we parked the car near Gilpin Bridge. Our path would take us to the farmhouse then left along a bridleway

This is normally a small trickle, however after the recent rain it was quite full. Just past here we left the bridleway to start our climb up onto the ridge

Gaining height and looking down to the A590 and the flooded fields

A close-up of Arnside and the Knott

On the ridge and looking N'wards to the summit. It was quite a breezy day and the clouds gave a mixture of views as they in turn covered and uncovered the higher fells

Although we saw a few rainbows we never got any rain on us

Looking back along the ridge

Nearly there!

Edith shelters behind the cairn

Looking north to Red Screes, Wansfell and Caudale Moor

To the NW and the Langdales

Long winter shadows on the summit

Our route back took us through Beck Head and Mill Side

The 10th of January and this chappie was still in a celebratory mode

More flooded fields on our return to the car

We walked back along the "old" road, now little used.

Finally, back to our start point.
