Summit ridge of Souther Fell After a long gentle diagonal ascent, the path to Souther Fell from Low Beckside emerges onto the ridge, where a bit of backtracking would be needed to visit the very highest point. It's not a terribly distinguished peak, so those engaged on a circular walk with Blencathra or Bannerdale Crags as the high point will probably, as we did, simply bag the square and press on to the southwest.

The col above Mousthwaite Cove A broad footpath descends from Souther Fell towards the col which falls steeply to the south into Mousthwaite Cove (to the left in this view). To the right, a path drops to cross the infant River Glenderamackin by a footbridge to ascend its left bank or climb White Horse Bent onto Bannerdale Crags (or return down-valley to Mungrisdale). Directly ahead, paths climb the ridge of Scales Fell in a direct assault on Blencathra, whilst another traverses above the River to reach Scales Tarn and a steeper path to the summit, or an exposed and exciting ridge - Sharp Edge which would be perhaps quite difficult in these conditions. We'd already decided that the snow would not be deep enough for ice axe braking in the event of a fall, whilst even the frozen turf was already treacherous enough without adding exposure and icy rocks, so our route was to be up the horizon line to the right.

Sheep on site of Roman Fort The sheep are in occupation of the site of a Roman camp; there's another on Lofshaw Hill which is in the distance and a third nearby. The image was recorded from an old alignment of the A66 - in part, the route of a Roman road. The herdwick sheep are lambs of the spring crop.

Rough grazing in field corner The vegetation of the field corner which lies on the south side of an earlier alignment of the A66 is little better than moorland.

River Glenderamackin from beside Wolt Bridge The River Glenderamackin rises between Skiddaw and Blencathra flowing south before turning east below that last mountain; it's seen here on that part of its course with the mountain rising into mist, beyond.
