Probably the last chance I would get for a trip to the Lakes this year, as the builders are coming back next week and we will be busy with the new kitchen. Excellent weather for walking - slightly cloudy with some wonderful autumn sunshine poking through the clouds.
I had planned to do some of the Ulldale fells North of Skiddaw but at the last minute (driving on the A66) I glanced up at Blencathra and decided to change the plans.

| Scales Tarn |
The route and navigation was simple. Park at Blencathra Centre just outside Threkeld, It is virtually a case of stepping out of the car onto the Fell. Up Blease Fell on an excellent path and onto the summit ridge. Views from the top were outstanding and spectacular.

| A brave soul on Sharp Edge |
From the summit I had a stroll along the ridge to get some pics of Sharp Edge and Scales Tarn.
Return by the same route.
