Echoing Leigh's comments, many thanks to all involved.
Next time I'll be taking a different route from Whin Rigg to Scafell....less traversing if possible.
Scafell to Eel Tarn...on Saturday I dropped straight from Scafell heading towards Broad Tongue, then ran beneath Raven Crag.
Would staying high towards Slight Side have been a better route?
Choices aplenty....loved it.
