Jan 5th and 6th Striding Edge and Blencathra

Over the weekend a trip to the Lakes didn't present the photographic opportunities that I'd hoped for.

Saturday we walked from Glenridding past Lantys Tarn up onto Striding Edge and Helvellyn.
We were shrouded in cloud all day, and a chilly wind on the summit meant we didn't hang around too long.

Striding Edge from Swirrel Edge (not 5th Jan!)

 Sunday was much of the same with a trip up Blencathra via Halls Fell Ridge,  the rocks on the ridge were treacherously slippery and great care was taken on the exposed bits near the top.
The camera stayed firmly in the bag.
