A great day up Scafell Pike from Seathwaite today.
The forecast wasn't showing that it was going to be the nicest of days to be on the fells, but after meeting in Seathwaite, and it not raining, we were hopeful the forecast was wrong....because that happens sometimes...haha
We made great progress at the start of the day up to Styhead Pass. The cloud was sitting on top of the summits but we still had a great view down into Wasdale. We continued to climb well up the Corridor route and after tackling a slightly windier final ascent we made it to the summit of Scafell Pike. After just a couple of quick snaps we dashed out of the wind into the shelter for a nice long lunch break.
After lunch we made our way over Broad Crag and Ill Crag to Calf Cove and then round to the top of Grains Gill, where we were again under the mist enjoying some great views down Borrowdale. The intermittent showers continued as we descended back down to Seatoller.
