I recently went walking in Buttermere with a mate and we were so lucky with the weather. We stayed at The Fish and climbed up to Red Pike, walked along the ridge to High Stile, thence to High Crag, down to Scarth Gap Pass, and back down alongside Buttermere back to the Fish and a welcome pint!
Eleven miles, six and a half hours, great pride, wonderful memories and a few photos.
If you're fit and able - do the walk! Good luck with the weather.

Haystacks (not on today's itinerary) from Scarth Gap Pass.
Looking across Buttermere - nearly back on low level ground.
A deserved reward!
