They should have spent money on defence against it instead of electronic gates etc. The main field needs to be raised up and decent drainage tunnels put in. So much water comes off the fell side but they have hardly done anything to stop it ponding.<br />Thanks for the good wishes.<br />AlanRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180571503542781921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439013386414903935.post-18587195078308881152015-04-25T10:34:15.434+01:002015-04-25T10:34:15.434+01:00A fantastic trip by the looks of it Alan.

Oddly I can remember the camp site at Great Langdale being flooded, the tent ended up being pitched, (more or less) on a bit of raised bank near the car park. Crinkle crag is always fun. Wonderful photos too. Also, congratulations to the pair of you, may you both have a fantastic day.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09839157927650251268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439013386414903935.post-18649850194811590392015-04-25T07:47:42.020+01:002015-04-25T07:47:42.020+01:00Cheers Martin.

I think the closed cell foam mats are in ascendance again.<br />No harm done with Glaramara thankfully, but i think Sue aged quite a bit. Ha. Amazingly dark night all the same.AlanRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180571503542781921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439013386414903935.post-61081271613006375302015-04-25T07:43:46.713+01:002015-04-25T07:43:46.713+01:00Thanks.

I don’t think i have had a hedgehog in my tent in Langdale but i have had rabbits. <br />Pike De Bield has a fantastic vantage point. I bet there is some neolithic history too. I must check it out.AlanRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180571503542781921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439013386414903935.post-72060467183176300442015-04-25T07:37:45.771+01:002015-04-25T07:37:45.771+01:00I don’t think there is anywhere better in the UK A...I don’t think there is anywhere better in the UK Al.<br />Thanks for the good wishes.AlanRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180571503542781921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439013386414903935.post-27136066170622914692015-04-24T23:24:08.921+01:002015-04-24T23:24:08.921+01:00Excellent report, Alan, and I confirm we were usin...Excellent report, Alan, and I confirm we were using RAB400 sleeping bags - Sue was a bit cool on her Neoair full length mat whilst I was fine on an old Karrimat. Well done on producing a fine slideshow as well.<br />And apologies for Sue's misunderstanding re the torch - I should have told her it was quite a long way to Glaramara, and I was going to be using the torch!Phreerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551842487502221703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439013386414903935.post-75207857859875522352015-04-24T21:40:09.325+01:002015-04-24T21:40:09.325+01:00Looks like an amazing trip.

Pike de Bield is one of the Lakes better kept secrets I think, a really great view point for the Scafells.
