Cat Bells at last
Posted: Fri Jan 12, 2018 8:50 pm
I came to Keswick years ago and wanted to climb Cat Bells but never got around to it.
Today I fixed that, and had a very easy climb in good weather.
I took my husband but he only made it a third of the way up, due to vertigo! He sat and waited and I made it up to the top and back to him in an hour. It took a total of 2 hours including a lunch stop!
There is a bit of scrambling involved - especially at the summit where hands are essential and I put away the poles and camera... so no pics of the really rocky bit.
I'll add some pictures.....
