Just above the Hause, with Place Fell behind...and a motorway of a path! |
Amazing light on Patterdale. |
Tent pitched at Angle Tarn...lots of space here, but it's heavily used, my advice to take your water from the small stream and def use a filter! |
After I'd eaten i walked up to the summit of Angletarn Pikes to watch the sunset. I was also treated to the late sun lighting up the tarn and High Street et al beyond. |
So the sun sets on the longest day, goiung down behind Great Dodd. |
Looking at this not every cloud has a silver lining....some are gold! :-) |
I slept well, breakfast taken on some handy rocks. |
This was never going to be a long walk, my main purpose was the camp. But I walked a different route back to the car. Looking back the reflections in the tarn were excellent. |
Did you have it to yourself? I've only passed it a couple of times but there have always been tents there....guess the short walk in appeals to a lot of people :-)
ReplyDeleteNo, there were 4 tents there when I arrived and another 5 turned up later...inc mine 10!
DeleteEveryone was scattered about so it was ok..2 groups on C2C and ! doing a Ravenglass-Shap walk.
I must say although its well used, I saw NO rubbish at all very impressed.
Cheers
Not very "wild" wild camping then! It just shows how popular it has become. A justifiably good spot to camp
ReplyDelete"Wild"....what do you want, Roaring Lions or perhaps a pack of Laughing Hyena's!
DeleteNice one Ian!
