Great photos. We did a variation on the same walk yesterday - there were no spaces to park at Maggies Bridge so we parked up on the opposite side of Loweswater and did the fells in reverse order to how I think you did them. My first walk in the Loweswater fells, such a great quiet area of the Lakes!
