Napes Needle after descending the steep scree slopes on the west face of Great Gable.

I followed the traverse path back to Styhead Tarn, crags in abundance round here.

Then a quick visit to Sprinkling Tarn, Great Gable and Green Gable(right) in the background.

The return path was to pass Taylorgill Force instead of going back over Stockley Bridge.
