Wasdale Head to Skelwith Bridge

A beautiful morning and an amazing view back down Wasdale as we started up Great Gable.
The 2700ft ascent was tough going at times, with a scramble toward the top. This wasn’t helped by the strong wind and even stronger guests. But we did have glorious sunshine all day.
The decent down to Sty Head Pass took a while and we eventually had lunch looking down in to Langdale.
We passed lots of Herdwick sheep on our way to our campsite just above Skelwith Bridge near a
Ambleside.
