This morning's walk: Catbells


a dewy morning - web on the gate


Derwentwater from the start of the Catbells ridge


Newlands Valley from the ridge looking west to Causey Pike ..


.. and southwest to Hindscarth and Robinson


approaching Catbells summit


the eastern slopes looking across Derwentwater to Blencathra


crowds coming up the ridge - Skiddaw in the distance


the crowded summit of Catbells


looking down the south ridge to Maiden Moor


the Jaws of Borrowdale from Catbells summit with Pike o'Stickle in the far distance


Borrowdale from Catbells summit ..


.. and again zoomed in


looking back at Catbells summit from the south


Newlands Valley and a glimpse of Bassenthwaite Lake from the descent path


Causey Pike, Little Town and the mines from the descent path


Swinside and Skiddaw, now in cloud, from the descent path
