Climbing England's Highest Mountain: Scafell Pike

Climbing England's Highest Mountain: Scafell Pike
Join me on my first ever ascent of Scafell Pike - England's highest mountain, standing at 3,209ft or 978m above sea level.
This was a first for me and something which has been on my "to do" list for many years, I was pleased to finally get to do it. An 03:30hrs start meant I was able to be on the mountain for about 7am and beat the crowds which this mountain draws in, especially in Summer.
As conditions on the summit showed, I was very glad I had brought a hat and gloves - demonstrating just how different things can be from valley level. The wind chill made it very cold indeed.
Please help the local Wasdale Mountain Rescue Team, by being prepared before trying this and making sure you have the correct equipment and a map and compass.
