Wainwright Day 5: Glenridding to Shap

Our Highest Point

Today we cross Kitty Pike, our highest point at 2650 ft.

A rainy day

I have stayed in Glenridding last night, and so must make my way to the group start at Patterdale in the rain

We climb toward Angle Tarn

High on Kidsty Pike, we encounter intermittent rain and high winds

We cross Randale Beck

Now that Kidsty Pike is absorbing more of the rainfall, we get some clearing weatherman the other side

At Naddle Bridge, our first honor box. A local has set out drinks that can buy.
