ECliffordSmith Posted February 28, 2007 Share #4 Posted February 28, 2007 Pete, Another very nice image. Haystacks was his favourite fell I believe wasn't it? It brings back many happy memories of walking the four fells there. That Red Pike kept getting steeper though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elansprint72 Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share #5 Posted February 28, 2007 Thanks folks. Yes, Haystacks was the man's favourite mountain and his wife scattered his ashes on the summit, from where there is a fantastic view of all the larger fells around.

stunsworth Posted February 28, 2007 Share #8 Posted February 28, 2007 For those in the UK there's a program about the man and Haystacks on BBC4 next Monday at 7:30. Probably on other dates too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
