A day on the Langdale Pikes - Photo 17 The imposing crag of Pavey Ark (2288 ft) towers above Stickle Tarn. To quote AW: Pavey Ark is Langdale's biggest cliff. In an area where crags and precipices abound, here is the giant of them all, and scenically, it is the best. (Wainwright, A. 1958. A Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells: Book Three, The Central Fells , Westmorland Gazette, Kendal.) A classic favourite with climbers and scramblers. The adventurous walker may ascend the crag by the exciting route of Jack's Rake, which can be seen slanting up from right to left across the rock face.

A blusterous, showery afternoon at Three Tarns (well, one of them) in the hause between Bowfell and Crinkle Crags, looking towards the Scafells. Bowfell Links on the right. See where this picture was taken. [?]

I loved the golden afternoon light on the yellowing, early autumn, grasses and rushes. The entire broad, ill-defined ridge between Great Langdale and Easedale is an absolute delight of miniature rocky peaks, grassy dells and little gems of tarns. A lovely place to spend a lazy, sunny, summer afternoon when the popular summits around about are thronged out with walkers.

Lingmoor Tarn lies in a beautiful, peaceful location, completely hidden from the popular valley of Great Langdale, just a few hundred metres away. See where this picture was taken. [?]
