Just a quick trip,I walked from Troutbeck up over Swallows then across Garburn too meet Lee Taylor who walked in from Mardale side,we met on high st and camped on Thornthwaite crag.Was a wet start then cleared out around 1 was a nice evening,but cloud came in to spoil sunset and sunrise....thanks for watching 

Langdale circuit for two nights

  A few weeks ago i met Daron linney,as he was leaving his camp and i was doing a day walk,we agreed to do a walk together and a few weeks later we met up   We met up at 9 am at Chapel stile and followed the old slate tracks then footpath up onto Lingmoor fell it was already warm,the colour and smell of the heather was fantastic,the langdales showed themselves off under blue skies After lingmoor we crossed over Blisco and Cold pikes summits ending the hot day camped on Little stand summit,i had done a video clip of camp,but the card had an error ? Anyway it looked like we would get a great sunset but cloud then a shower put paid to that sadly    But the dawn was a real cracker,it had cleared briefly at 11 pm and i tried a few Pics off the Gopro but there were still clouds about,luckily Daron woke at 1 am and he got a belting shot off,ive left them too the end of this blog ...
