Climbing up beside . . .
Sourmilk Gill
Looking back down Seathwaite Valley . . .
where many cars are parked along the road to the farm. . .
And again from higher up . . .
where Ray chooses a vantage point . . .
but we'll just stick to the footpath
From this elevation . . .
lots of fell tops can be seen . . .
but adding the walk in retrospect . . .
it's difficult to name them all
Possibly heading from Base Brown to Green Gable
where there are views to Buttermere and Crummack Water . . .
into the Ennerdale Valley . . .
across to Pillar Rock . . .
Pillar . . .
and Kirk Fell
From Green Gable the path can be seen to . . .
Great Gable . . .
with its memorial plaque
Wast Water is seen from Great Gable . . .
before the stony summit is left behind
