A Langdale Classic
On October 3, 2008, Andy embarked on an extensive exploration of Great Langdale, targeting the high tops documented in Wainwright’s Book 4, “The Southern Fells.” His journey included peaks such as Crinkle Crags, Bow Fell, and others, aiming to gather material for his “Wainwrights in Colour” project. Starting early from The Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel, the day-long trek through the stunning but rugged terrain was fruitful, capturing essential references and experiencing notable features like Gladstone’s Finger, while documenting the adventure with the limited capabilities of a Fujipix S5500 camera. This endeavour provided both challenging and memorable elements, encapsulating the timeless beauty of these fells.
