Lake District Northern Foothills

Hallin Fell - 15 October 2004


Good progress on our journey from London to Ayrshire allowed a short stop in the Lake District, and a walk up Hallin Fell from the hause.

Looking up Boredale to Boredale Hause, with Place Fell on the right


George and Henry by the very substantial summit cairn, George looking to Place Fell which he visited in August, and Henry to Great Mell Fell which he will visit on Sunday

High Rigg - 17 October 2004


Looking south from the summit of High Rigg (357m/1171ft), a knobbly little mass of land at the foot of Thirlmere, sandwiched between St John's in the Vale and Naddle Beck


Although surrounded by high fells, it is not connected to any. Looking past Keswick to the north-western fells and Bassenthwaite Lake

Great Mell Fell - 17 October 2004


Henry looking a bit damp on top of Great Mell Fell (537m/1762ft). He had a great time, honestly, he just didn't want to have his photo taken!
