    Really beautiful views of the lakes. I find the lack of trees in that area very interesting. I live in a spot where we have a TON of trees. You can tell how far you've walked simply by the different angles of the lake. You chose a great place to set up camp! Views from both sides.

    Absolutely awesome up there. They're such a diverse array of fells. Probably nothing else like it in England. We are blessed in this country. They're not the highest but we have so many small impressive ranges like this. We could spend a lifetime exploring it all. Who knows who that was walking bu your camp. It might have been Jim Holden. Then again he would have said, 'hello fellow camper.' good going. All the best. Mark

      Your not wrong there, you could spend days ratching all over the place and exploring, I was the otherside of the water from whoever it was so was not in speaking distance lol Thanks Dave

    What a lovely place. I’ve checked on the map Dave where it is. Do you park at haweswater and walk up to it?

    • @BorderRambler
      @BorderRambler  Před 5 lety

      Yes thats right follow reservoir all the the way to Mardale head then park up, there are a few ways up whatever suits. I went the long way round but returned direct down from Small water to the car park on way back.
