High Raise and the Langdale Pikes ( Pavey Ark, Harrison Stickle and Pike o'Stickle ) 22 August 2011
















A bright, fairly muggy, calm day and an enjoyable walk from Langdale up to the Pikes - first, Pavey Ark by Stickle Tarn, good views from the summit at 2,288' after a steep scramble, across the Pikes and the Scafell range to the west - and High Raise to the north, the next peak reached at 2,500' giving an extensive panorama in all directions. Then the more rugged peaks of Harrison Stickle (2,415') and on to the conical Pike o'Stickle (2,323') with very good views of Bowfell, Crinkle Crags and Scafell/Great Gable. 4 Peaks climbed in all.
