Certainly is mate. I hand realised the was such a prominent Syncline in the gorge. There’s another huge fold in the spout above Black Force. My plan is to get up there and not exit on a stretcher 🤣
Thank you for posting. Enjoyed this video. I am a pensioner and did my last Munro in 1996 and have walked extensively in the Pennines, Lakes and Ireland. However, I have never been to the Howgills. The range seems to be unique, not quite the Pennines, neither quite like the Lakes,. They are the ham sandwiched between them.
The Howgills are fantastic and mostly uncrowded. Generally there are benign but do have some ‘teeth’ in places. Such as Black force and Cautley crags. My mum was born in Sedbergh and my dad grew up in Appleby, a bit further north. The Howgills are Silurian sedimentary rocks and most of the Lakes is igneous/volcanic hence the very different characteristics. Thanks for watching. Plenty of other videos for you to enjoy in and around the area. I do love the Westmorland dales and north Pennines especially. Atb
Cheers mate. It’s a great way up. It’s a really well built path. You wouldn’t think I used to rock climb judging by my fussing 😂. There’s quite a few dales 30s up there. Atb
I can't believe you hadn't walked up the path before. Cracking video as per usual. You picked a good day.
I know. Been to the top and the bottom but never up it😵Atb
Some of the best walking in England and best of all, there is nobody there! Cheers.
Love it up there. My ambition is to finally get in to Black Force and not come out on a stretcher 🤣Thanks for watching. Atb
Great video Pete. It’s a spectacular place isn’t it.

Very nice video!
It’s a beautiful area. Had it all to myself! Thanks for watching and commenting. Atb
@unclepeteswildadventures Looks so. Subbed to your channel. Cheers from Norway 🙂👍
Hi Pete, it's fabulous up there- I haven't been to Cautley Spout but it's on my list! Great video as always 😄

@@hikeandcampwildadventures Yeah, I know- they're the ones on my list!☺
Sure is a grunt up there mate..remember it well...some grand/steep fells around those parts.
Looks terrible from a distance but it’s a really good solid path. Wouldn’t like to do it with heavy pack Steven. Thanks for watching 👍
