Coledale horseshoe,3 Scarps-2 nights..Jan 2022
It was 3 pm before we left the carpark, near Braithwaite as we headed up towards the gloom of low cloud, the air was damp and cool so we pushed onwards and upwards Photo credit Matt Holland A friend Matt Holland was already out, he sent me this picture (Above) as he had just breached the cloud top from the other direction, It spurred us on and 90 mins from leaving the carpark....we got lucky too,just as the sun had set My brother Jamie,who reached half way round his Wainwrights on this trip We met up with Matt who had already collected water so we all pitched up our Scarp 1s then me and Jamie walked off to collect some water for tea I had a choice of two the first night so choose the Pasta Bolognaise one the warm food helped to restore some heat into my finger tips after taking pictures The full moon sadly washed out a lot of the clear night skies, but camped above a full inversion we weren't complain...
