Derwent Edge 14th May 2017
Another brilliant walk along Derwent Edge. Parked at a layby on the road to Fairholmes, and walked along Ladybower to the A57. From there it was a short walk along the road and then

Red Screes 8th April 2017
Another four in the bag. Red Screes , Middle Dodd, Little Hart Crag and High Hartsop Dodd.
This was a there and back again walk. From Ambleside to the top of the Scandale pass. From the top of the pass I turned right to climb Red Screes, and Middle Dodd, and then back down to the pass to do the opposite ridge of Little HArt Crag and High Hartsop Dodd.
Meg was with me (entertaining as always) and the weather was stunning.
I had a go at creating a slide show with some movie clips :-
