As a frustrated Fell Walker I was pleased to have a walk\u00a0up Loughrigg Fell today.\u00a0My first fell walk since October 2014. Since the start of the year I have been working on a Graded Exercise Therapy plan as part of my recovery from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and so far this year I have walked on the flat locally. Today was a test to see how I manage with inclines.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Heading up through Fishgarths\u00a0Wood to Loughrigg.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After what seemed like a long uphill trek we eventually reach this magnificent viewpoint over Windermere, inspiration indeed to carry on.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Windermere with Low Wood Bay on the left.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A little higher up.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Taking a well earned rest on this bench we find a Geo Cache where\u00a0Lewis writes in the notebook…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…while Thomas takes a rest and soaks in the views.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Concentrating on his writing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Good Boy. The Brasso is to polish the plaque on the bench which is dedicated to the treasure box owners Grandad.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thomas and Lewis.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As we ascend the views open up over Windermere and Ambleside comes into view on the left.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/pre>\n
Lewis scrambling up the rocks to reach the highest point first.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Proud of himself.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
A great achievement for Lewis, his enthusiasm is inspiring.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Looking back over Loughrigg and towards the Langdale Pikes, Bowfell and Crinkle Crags.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Windermere with Waterhead below left.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Ambleside.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
The Fairfield Horseshoe above Rydal Hall. Fells this high seem such a million miles away for my ability these days. Hopefully one day i will be able to experience them again with my recovery effort.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
A well positioned Stile that makes great foreground interest for Landscape Photography from Loughrigg. Golden hour would be stunning up here.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
A wider perspective.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Wider still. Beautiful.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Lewis finding his own vantage point.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Sunrise from here would be magnificent.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
A real wide vista showing Fairfield horseshoe, Ambleside and Windermere.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Drystone walls leading to the Fairfield Horseshoe.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
A closer look at the Fairfield Horseshoe. One day….<\/p>\n
