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.
Wasdale to Scafell Pike. Gale force wind, very heavy (horizontal) rain, 5m vis. A really tough evening for my group of (now) 7. They worked hard and were the only team of 3 to top out. Hard work in charge of the group.
