Over Wythop Valley towards Sale Fell

Over Wythop Valley towards Sale Fell
Sale Fell iis an east-west ridge about a mile long, clad primarily in fell grass and bracken] The eastern end is heavily forested as part of Wythop Wood. These are mostly conifers, although the mix of trees is gradually changing. There are Forestry Commission offices hidden in the trees at the base of the fell. The summit of the fell is toward the west of the ridge and there are two other tops to the east. Rivings (1,099 ft) and Lothwaite (1,132 ft) are included in some guidebooks

A very nice panorama in lovely light Doug, not an area I'm familiar with.

Thank you Reger, much appreciated. Wythop Valley is a bit of a hidden gem, a bit off the beaten tourist path. Plenty of easy walking in the valley itself and also on Ling Fell and Sale fell which sit either side of the valley. For such low felsl the view from the summits is quite amazing The Solway Firth/Scotland, Skiddaw, Lords Seat, Bassenthwaite, Keswick and the fells beyond are all to been seen. From Ling Fell Summit on a clear day you can even see the Isle of Man.
Best regards, Doug
