The English Lake District is the most beautiful natural terrain I know. In 1990 I was fortunate enough to be able to come to live here permanently and walk the Lakeland fells to my heart's content. This site is dedicated to all those who explore the area on foot. Larger version of this picture. STOP PRESS 22 March 2008 - I've moved the website to a new web server and had to upload the whole site and modify scripts. As far as I know everything is now working properly. If you find anything missing or working wrongly please let me know. I had hoped to resurrect the mailing list but the new hosts have restrictions on outgoing mail so sorry but I'm just not able to do it. 18 March 2008 - I'm in the process of adding new photographs to the site. Details are available here. 7 March 2008 - The GPS route files have been brought up to date. Two data types are available, GPSU format and GPX, serving GPSU and EasyGPS software. 19 February 2008 - I had a good panoramic view of the Lakeland fells across the fog-filled Eden valley from Cross Fell yesterday. There is a new zoom-featured photograph with which one can see the range of fells on detail. 12 February 2008 - I had a good view of the Isle of Man from Great End yesterday. There is a new photograph with zoom features so you can home in on the Isle of Man or even Sellafield if you so wish. 19 January 2008 - I've recently returned from a walking tour in the Simien Mountains in Ethiopia, where the scenery is absolutely stunning. An extended trip report is presented here. May 2007 - I've recently returned from a walking tour of Sicilian volcanoes, i.e. Etna, Stromboli and Vulcano. Photographs of the trip are accessed here. On Christmas Day 2006 a temperature inversion resulted in cloud being trapped in the Lakeland valleys up to an elevation of around 2,500 feet. There was glorious sunshine and clear air above this level. I climbed Dove Crag from Brotherswater and continued to Fairfield before descending via Hartsop above How. I've kept these photos together here
