Another misty but drier day climbing Scafell Pike from Seathwaite today.
We left Seathwaite Farm and made our way to the Stockley Bridge. We climbed by Taylor Gill Force and up to Styhead Pass where we had a little stop to enjoy the views, which were being made quite dramatic by the sun braking through the cloud. From the pass we joined the Corridor route which traversed up the fellside, and on which we gained great views through holes in the mist down into Wasdale.
We continued climbing up into the mist, and soon enough we were at Lingmell Col and making our way up towards the summit. The mist seemed to get thicker and thicker, but soon enough we were up on the windswept summit of Scafell Pike. After a few snaps we left for the summit shelter, which fortunately had noone in it, mainly because nobody could see it!
After our lunch we descended the steep slope to Broad Crag col, and then climbed over Broad Crag, Ill Crag and down Calf Cove to the top of Grains Gill. We descended Grains Gill back to Seathwaite Farm.
