The Southern Fells Include Scafell Pike, the highest peak in England, occupy a broad area to the south of Great Langdale, Borrowdale and Wasdale. High and rocky towards the centre of the Lake District, the Southern Fells progressively take on a moorland character toward the south west. In the south east are the well known Furness Fells, their heavily quarried flanks rising above Coniston Water.
4am start, leading a group of 11, split between 2 leaders , me at front, Almaas at rear. Near Brown Tonge, 1 participant was unable to carry on. Almaas dropped back to escort back. I finished the walk with the group. Good lead in poor vis and happy clients!
