Far Easedale Fell On route from Far Easedale towards Easedale Tarn looking back to the craggy fells on the northern side of the Far Easedale valley. This route is quite boggy and there is a stretch of getting on towards 1/4 mile which is based on stepping stones although there are other minor paths available but not necessarily as easy to follow This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |

Helm Crag 3 About 40 minute prior to this shot I was standing on top of Helm Crag. You can see the two peaks with 'The Howitzer' to the left and 'The Lion and the Lamb' a couple of hundred yards to the right. The grassy path which can seen to the right of the hill forms part of the ascent although the majority of the climb is not quite so smooth, but extremely well worth doing. On a good day the views from the top are amazing, so I am told!! but yet have to prove it to myself. This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |
