One of the upsides of changeable weather.... rainbows! There were plenty of these on show during our climb up to Catstye Cam.

Dropped Tonje of for her op at St Thomas' this morning and took a walk along the National Covid Memorial wall. It goes on and one, takes quite a while and is very moving

Ahaa! I know where that was taken
- Saint-Martin-de-Re. From that side, I took this:
Wasn't mine, as we took a couple of these to cycle around this island.
A beautiful place to take a holiday : )

I've always felt that CC is an underrated mountain - it's such a wonderful spot to take in the views of the Helvellyn Range/Dollywaggon etc.
I could be wrong but did you take the walk to the Hole in the Wall then cut across to CC from there? I just adore this place.
Agreed 100%. It' such a shapely mountain. Dare I say it, far more aesthetically pleasing than the more popular Helvellyn (which is a bit of a square jawed brute by comparison).
You're spot on - we took the route up from Patterdale Hall up to the Hole in the Wall and the across to Catstye Cam. It also gave my son a first sighting of the edges (Striding and Swirral) should he want to attempt them when he's a bit older.
I actually took along the little DJI Pocket 2 to film the hike. When I've finished compiling the footage, I'll post it here if people would be interested in seeing it?

I'm compiling the footage as I type. Only thing to mention is it's not drone footage (the DJI Pocket 2 is a handheld gimbal / camera in one rather than a drone - see image below).
Agree re: Swirral vs Striding. I think that when my son is ready for Helvellyn, we will likely cross over and reach it via Swirral Edge and the come back the same way and tag Catstye Cam before heading back down and getting Birkhouse Moor as well
I would love to do Sharp Edge one day, but I feel this will likely be when my son is a lot older (at least 12).

While I'm editing the video from Catstye Cam, here's an image from our trip to The Lakes in summer which I just edited. Newlands Valley from Catbells - taken on the wee Sony.

Ah, I'm not obviously not up with modern technology
The clue is in the name isn't it?Ah, I'm not obviously not up with modern technology
Don't worry - it's not just you! I also get confused with these type of products!
Video should be ready by lunch time.

Spent today visiting an old friend (he was my Best Man in fact) in Cambridge today - the city I grew up in. So much has changed, but it was wonderful to take in some places from my childhood, namely Wandlebury which is where we as a family had so much fun, exploring the woodland. I haven't been back there in over 30 years, and so refreshing that so little has changed.
