High Crag, High Stile & Red Pike

A sunny Bank Holiday Monday , wonder of wonders. Having convinced ourselves that Striding Edge would be like the M25 at rush hour, we zipped up the Newlands Valley to Buttermere and walk the spectacular ridge incorporating High Crag, High Stile & Red Pike. The guidebook said 5.5 miles; I think not! Eight to ten would be more like it. The descent off Red Pike was a bit slithery but what views!
