The pictures on these pages are either Local or Holiday pictures that do not appear in the walks.
The following pictures are from a walk we did from Elterwater in May 2004. From Elterwater we walked up Great Langdale to the New Dungeon Ghyll along the valley bottom. From the NDG we returned via the Cumbria Way to Elterwater village. It was such a lovely day that we then walked to Elterwater itself and on to Skelwith Force before returning to the car.
From Elterwater we made our way to Chapel Stile using a path that followed the Great Langdale Beck
Chapel Stile with Megs Gill to the right
This path would take us into the campsite at Baysbrown
From the campsite looking towards the Langdale Pikes with Harrison Stickle in the middle and Pavey Ark to the right
There were plenty of these cheeky chappies about enjoying the sun
The Langdales from near the footbridge at Oak Howe

Approaching the NDG ...Harrison Stickle, Pavey Ark and Tarn Crag
After a drink and a bite to eat at the Sticklebarn we made our way back to Elterwater using this section of the Cumbria Way. The Crinkle Crags on the skyline with The Band in the centre.
Looking across tthe valley to Loft Crag, Harrison Stickle, Pavey Ark and Tarn Crag with the knobble of Pike Howe below Harrison Stickle
Making our way back to Oak Howe.
A look back. The view of the Langdales from the valley bottom is something I never tire of.
From Oak Howe we walked back to Elterwater through Hag Wood and Baysbrown Wood
It was too nice to leave without going down to the waterside at Elterwater
And from there it's only a short walk to Skelwith Force
Before returning to Elterwater and the car.
