It was a lovely sunny day but was very cold and windy at the start. It was my first ascent of Great Gable and it was well worth it. I did not see many walkers today but I did meet up with a walker on the summit of Great Gable who had climbed the peak today on his 50th birthday. MAP © Crown Copywright. All rights reserved.
