A beautiful round of the Newlands Valley today, taking in the ever popular Cat Bells and the high point of Dale Head. There are lovely views all round on this horseshoe, the descent from Hindscarth being particularly appealing.

The visible path follows the ridge from Hindscarth to Scope End. Adjacent is High Snab Bank with a view of the Derwent Fells. See below for an annotated version of this photo.

Sunlight on Robinson from High Crags. In the distance is Wandope - Eel Crag (Grasmoor behind) - Sail, in the centre distance is the Knott Rigg - Ard Crags ridge.
