Eskdale Dubfest 2015

In complete contrast to the previous year, there was some glorious sunshine for the 2015 Eskdale Dubfest.


















Hike up Muncaster Fell

Saturday

Muncaster Fell is a long, narrow ridge of land, approximately 1.2 km wide and 6 km long, lying between the River Mite to the north, and River Esk to the south. The fell rises from the coast near Ravenglass village to its highest point at Hooker Crag (231 m). The ridge then continues to the north-east, dropping gently to its furthest prominence atSilver Knott (174 m). The fell then falls away rapidly to the village of Eskdale Green at its north-eastern tip.















Eskdale Moor 2015

Friday

Before the arrival of all the dubfest vans, I took a hike up onto Eskdale Moor.

When I did this route in March 2 years ago I was wrapped up for the snow and hail showers. This time I just needed a t-shirt. Photos were more dramatic last time however,
