19 April 2003 - Holme Fell

Looking across the tail of Tilberthwaite Fells and Lingmoor Fell to the silhouette of the Langdale Pikes on the ascent of Holme Fell from the Hodge Close quarries.

Lucy takes a quick breather while Stephen has a look around to check we're going to the right summit.

Henry tells us to hurry up on the descent to an attractive tarn (a disused reservoir)
