"17/9/68 Hope you are not flooded out. We haven't had any rain at all yet. This is typical of the type of terrain we traverse on our runs. Hardknott pass is supposedly the highest in England. -unclear name- is going on a civil service course all next week. So I'm afraid the golf game will have to be postponed till next vacation. Edward”

| Date Posted: | The photo is taken from approximately half way down Wrynose Pass on its Western side. Wrynose bottom is at the foot of the pass, where the lonely Cockley Beck farm is located at the head of the Duddon Valley. Hardknott pass climbs westwards from Wrynose Bottom, crossing the col to the north of Harter Fell before dropping into the Eskdale Valley. Harter Fell is the hill seen in the distance on the left skyline | |
