looking to the Hardknott Pass which can be seen climbing steeply up the hillside

heading up the scramble to Foxes Tarn, with Scafell Pike behind. The angles on this photo look wrong but it was the scenery, not me, which was on a slant! To get an idea of scale note the figures at the bottom of the gorge contemplating the climb up
near the top of Scafell, looking down to Foxes Tarn bottom right - which Wainwright accurately described as a pond with a rock in it! - and the River Esk far below
view from Symonds Knott on Scafell to mountains including Great Gable, Kirk Fell and Pillar
looking from Scafell to Scfell Pike
down to Wast Water
another view from Scafell across to the Mosedale horseshoe [which I was to walk round the following day] with Pillar in the centre.
