Lake District, Langdale Fells from Chapel Stile.

Camped at Baysbrown Farm Campsite with the winds still quite strong I opted for the relatively low Langdale fells above Chapel Stile and walked over to just below Sergeant Man where I bailed due to the wind and descended to Stickle Tarn and the valley below before returning to the campsite.

5 1/2 hrs.

Lake District, Helm Crag to Calf Crag from Grasmere.

A wet and windy weekend in the lakes resulted in an aborted camp at Baysbrown Farm due to a storm during the night (snapped tent pole) so only managed to fit this one walk in and it rained the whole day.

I was going to head for Easedale Tarn but due to the worsening weather decided to head down the valley back to Grasmere.

5hrs.

An almost deserted campsite.
Free parking in the layby just outside Grasmere.
