Dales and Howgills Bank Holiday 2013

 Parking was tough, but signage was worse.  Banter with hill farmer secured a prime location.

 Camera at arms length needs work
 Climbing from Howgill. No people, no tracks, no bother.
 Traversing the Calf. Fine position.
 Hazy fence
 Trapped on the fells.

 The summit path
600m of down ;-)
