Hiking

Helvellyn via Striding edge.

Hello,

Today i’d like to share some images from a hike up to Helvellyn.

The route taken was

Glen Ridding car park,

up and over Striding edge.

The weather was nice on the route up, but unexpectedly Helvellyn's trig point was still very icey and snowy making the descent onto Swirrial edge dangerous without spikes so we walked Whiteside pass back to the car.

6 hours in total.

Thanks.

Loch Brandy

Hello,

I hope that you are well and have had a lovely weekend.

Today I thought Id share a couple of simple shots from a recent hike up Loch Brandy.

Loch Brandy is a superb example of a mountain corrie, backed by craggy slopes and cradling a perfect loch. The walk has the benefit of a very well-constructed path making this a good short and relatively easy hillwalk.

Thanks

Lee
