It was a fantastically clear day in the Lake District today and the evening was looking as though there would be a great sunset. Come on Dougal & Fletcher, let’s get up to Stickle Pike to witness it!
The shadows are already lengthening at the start of the climb, there is no time to hang around!
The sun is disappearing behind Black Combe as we make it to the top.
Looking over Great Stickle to the udon Estuary with Barrow and Furness beyond.
Wow, it is a beautiful sunset tonight and well worth the effort to get up here.
The Golden Boys.
Looking to the head of Dunnerdale, L-R: Scafell, Scafell Pike, Harter Fell (mid ground), Esk Pike, Bowfell, Little Stand, Crinkle Crags, Grey Friar, Coniston fells and Caw.
The sun has quickly all but gone now.
Time to go - for the sun and us!
