  1. The superb weather continued today and I couldn't resist a walk over
    Striding Edge up to Helvellyn. The views and clarity was outstanding
    today, hopefully the photos do it some justice. Photos @

    Wonderful images. Would love to jump into the nearest aircraft and go
    there ...

    I haven't seen your movies before. My dog thinks I was barking actually, she
    wanted to lick my face to show her *humbleness*.

    That's a fantastic walk in fantastic conditions....

    The first photo looking towards the head of Grisedale is superb, the
    contrast of the hills against the azure sky is stunning.

    Wishing I wasn't stuck in the office, David!!!

    I've got to do this walk. Any problems for Angus? Just wondering
    because I'll be taking Magic, my border collie.

  13. Thanks for the replies - it was a great day out in near perfect
    conditions. If only they were all like that...

    Not sure if you've done Striding Edge before, Geoff, but there is a
    path to the right for most of the way as you are heading for Helvellyn
    which is dog friendly, then it switches to the left before the descent
    of 'the bad bit' - the chimney. The only further tricky bit is the
    ascent of Helvellyn, but dogs are alright if you keep left to the faint
    path. Swirral was no problem really.
