It was very hazy again today with the sun trying to burn through and making it quite warm. We stayed low on the quiet but lovely Dunnerdale fells followed by a cooling dip (for some of us anyway!) in the River Duddon.
Climbing the gully from Stonestar. I feel sure if this was in a more popular part of the Lakes it would be named Great Gully - so Great Gully it is then!
Looking down the Great Gully to the Duddon Valley and The Pike
Heading for Great Stickle there are many ancient cairns littering the area.
All bow to the great Trig. column'!. The summit of Great Stickle with Stickle Pike beyond.
Warm.
Stickle Pike.
A dried up tarn on Tarn Hill.
Stickle Pike, again from Tarn Hill.
It's a mini-haystacks this one with tarns and views.
This edge catches the wind by the look of this hoary old tree. Casper looks decidedly filthy after a visit to a boggy tarn.

It's just lovely here.
