A trip from Nov 2011,one of my best winter camps



Grest views off the Scafells from Esk pike


Back in the day when he still carried his own gear and food




Looking north from Esk hause



Even with sun up it was still only -3c



Heavy frost over nite,i recorded -8c at 4 am then went back to sleep again



Camp on upper slopes of Great End





















Nice hats on Skiddaw and Blencathra

Gable from Great end summit












Oscar waiting for sunrise and some warmth


















Photo bombed !



























Sunset behind Scafells














Moonrise over Great End summit





















Cant see it,and i cudnt capture it but when i went out around 9 pm ...i found i had a nite time inversion,only had two and there something special







































Last of the sunset




































































Even had a flyby




















Harter fell from Bowfell







Three tarns
