Eden Valley & North Pennines
Striding Edge overlooking Red Tarn

This view, looking along Striding Edge, shows Red Tarn on one side with Swirral Edge cradling the tarn on the other. To the right the ridge plunges down to Grisedale Beck in the spectacular Grisedale valley. The final ascent of Helvellyn is made by a fairly steep scramble up the rocky face.
