Great photos. Only walked up there once, I'll have to go again.

Thanks for the upvote, High Stile turned out to be a worthy excursion, as did Old Man of Coniston.

Nice photo, hope to be on that place someday.

Lovely photos, I've never seen them in winter

Thanks for the upvote. The lake district adopts a certain alpine quality in winter, the day I climbed High Stile, the chill factor was -16 degrees. Hopefully not promoting my work but you're welcome to check out my 'Scarfell Pike from Seathwaite' blog which shows Scarfell Pike under (relatively) heavy snow.
