Foot Of The Mountain

I'm slowly dipping back into my slide archive & finding all sorts of lost treasures: these are two of my favourite images from a fantastic holiday I went on to the Lake District two summers ago – as you can see, the typical rain held off for longer than usual! The Great Gable shot was taken at the end of a long day spent scaling Scafell Pike, a final glorious view just before returning to the car parked at Wasdale Head. The view across to Skiddaw & Blencathra came after a mad dash up Cat Bells from the lakeshore on the final morning just before I drove home – nothing like squeezing in as much as possible when on holiday, especially when the weather's that good!
