A superb circular of Skiddaw's eastern tops, the cloud obviously finally lifting as I was descending. 
Lonscale Fell & Pike, Jenkin Hill, Lesser Man, Little Man, Sale How and return via Skiddaw House and the excellent Cumbria Way. Finished off with a run up to Latrigg-pound for pound the best WW to date, for the effort required vs reward.. | Alfa1M | 21/11/2023 |
