In terms of distance (about 5.5 miles) and runnability (running up Sharp Edge is a bit tricky to say the least) this little outing probably doesn't count for much but, as far as fantastic routes up and down a mountain go, it just doesn't get any better than this. Especially in today's pretty much perfect weather. A real humdinger!

| Blencathra ahoy |

| Harry in his element |
 |
| Sharp Edge on the horizon |
 |
| Looking sharpy and edgey |
 |
| Climbing up there proved to be a doddle for Harry the mountain dog |
 |
| Looking back along Sharp Edge |
 |
| Harry glad to have got to the top of Sharp Edge (it wasn't really a doddle) |
