Revelation.
I have to confess to getting a little worried at this point on my ascent of Side Pike! The inversion seemed to be climbing as quickly as I was and a thought it may not be possible to actually get above it!
I needn't have worried though as I climbed further the misty cloud settled and drifted back down to the valley sides, revealing the Langdale Pikes and surrounding Peaks. I took this hand held with my little camera as I climbed Side Pike, just in case the cloud continued to rise and I couldn't get a tripod shot on my big camera from the summit.
As it was I got quite a few decent shots from the summit as the sun began to set. I will post a panorama of the late scene just before Christmas.
