Another glorious sunny day. Parked in Seathwaite and went up Green Gable then across to Great Gable. The section from Green to Great was particularly hard work. I do not like going down to go back up! Particularly when the down is a scree slope. Fantastic views from the top made it all worthwhile.

Got a little lost on the last section back to the car but that meant some interesting scrambling which is always good fun. A little bit of back tracking but nothing too bad. One day I'll get the hang of this navigating malarky.
