Stonethwaite village at the start of the walk.
|
|

Sheepfold with Eagle Crag behind.
|
|

The easy path that leads up to Greenup.
|
|

Nearing Eagle Crag. The route I was to take heads up the
bracken covered slope on the left and then finds its way through the rocky
outcrops to reach the summit.
|
|

Looking back to Borrowdale as I gain height on the
bracken covered slopes.
|
|

This easy gully has to be ascended, the wooden spans
across the gully as described by AW have now gone.
|
|

Eagle Crag itself from where the fell gets its name.
|
|

A fine view of Langstrath from near the summit.
|
|

Zooming in on a distant Bowfell and the sun on Great
Slab.
|
|

Eagle crag summit cairn perched neatly on the rock
platform.
|
|

Tempting.
|
|

Tasty!
|
|

Sergeant's Crag, our next fell.
|
|

Looking back to Eagle Crag with Skiddaw away in the
background.
|
|

and across to Honister Crag.
|
|

The summit cairn and the skyline mound of pike
o'Stickle.
|
|

I was now heading onwards and upwards to High
Raise.
|
|

Tarn below Long Crag.
|
|

Zeta makes full use of the facilities.
|
|

Long Crag.
|
|

Light on Sergeant's Crag and Eagle Crag with
Bassenthwaite just coming into view.
|
|

High Raise with Crinkle Crags and Bowfell. From this
point I was going to head down Langstrath via Stake Pass but changed my
plans and headed for Ullscarf.
|
|

Ullscarf lies ahead over High White Stones.
|
|

Tarns on the approach to Ullscarf.
|
|

Great Gable past the summit cairn.
|
|

The focused hound as we contour round to Lining Crag.
|
|

Both of us seem to be going a bit grey!
|
|

The moraine field of Greenup
|
|

Sun on slopes of Ullscarf.
|
|

Looking down on Eagle Crag.
|
|

Looking back up to Lining Crag.
|
|

Stonethwaite Beck and Eagle Crag.
|
|

Summer evening sun near Stonethwaite as another good
outing on the fells comes to an end. |
