Mosedale

Descending the ENE ridge of Bowscale Fell A ridge heads ENE then east from Bowscale Fell, dropping gently over a couple of small rises before a very steep descent to Mungrisdale. Ahead, there is no more high ground until the Pennines, the low and wide Vale of Eden being separated from these fells by the Carrock End Fault and on the far side from the Alston Block, by various branches of the Pennine Fault.
