Leaving Longlands on the moor road.

Two small "pointers".

Charleton Gill, now with its recently planted woodland enclosures.

Looking back down the valley with Longlands Fell on the left.

The summit of Brae Fell, Skiddaw behind. from here is was an easy route across to Little Sca Fell.

Little Sca Fell summit.

Great Sca Fell.

The route to  Knott was described by AW as "juicy"...it still is.

South-west from the summit of Knott with Great Calva and Lonscale Fell.

We had to take a longer route so that we could find these cairns on Burn Tod.

The descent from Burn Tod brought us to the gap in the fells know as Trusmadoor.

Binsey in sun.

And on Longlands, our path leads down to the left and over Lowthwaite Hill, just our of the left of the picture.

The path up to Longlands, this neat track made by farmers on quad bikes more than walkers. Needless to say we didn't see many others on this route.

Longlands summit cairn.

Our descent of the hill and back to the village and the car. A very pleasant day on the hills and covering some new ground.
