Grabbed an early start from Glenridding and headed up to Sticks Pass. Long time since we have been up here, but nice to leave the crowds heading towards Swirral Edge and Striding Edge, which was to be our descent route. The weather got progressively better and we made good time getting to the top via Raise, White Side and Low Man for a picture shoot. The top wasn't that busy but we did have some shenanigans negotiating people on the way down Striding Edge, as per usual. Great day, about 8 miles but felt it a bit later on.

Swirral Edge descent, which I think is more dangerous than Striding Edge. Catstye Cam straight ahead. |

Trig point posing, or leaning! |

Summit refuge, food spot with striding Edge just to the left of the people sitting on the grass. |

Jo down-climbing Striding Edge, she did ask to swap places after the photo shoot. |
