Hi Andrew, Lord's Rake in the mist! Great set of photos. We went up Lord's Rake and the West Wall traverse some years ago - before the chock stone lodged at the top. It was a beautiful ( though icy ) day till we reached the top when the cloud descended! Best wishes, Sue

Hi Andrew, very atmospheric photos of Lord's Rake. A great reminder of the time when I did it, I won't ever be doing it again though! I got as far as that last section no problems and then panicked...too much apparent exposure for me. Well I couldn't go back so I had to go on! I've not seen such detailed photos of Lord's Rake since that day so thanks very much. Maggie.

Dear Andrew, We were wondering if you did manage to get here. It must have been a very fast ascent but so glad you managed to get there after all. Good for you getting up Lord's Rake too liked you atmospheric shots from there. Having been on Scafell in the cloud I really want to return one day in clear conditions. We missed entirely the plane on Slight side too :o( Take care now, Jill
