Haystacks in the #LakeDistrict is a relatively low hill at 1958 ft but makes up for it with its beauty, interesting rock formations and tarns. It was Wainwright’s favourite. This route includes Fleetwith Pike and possibility of bluebells in Spring.

@ascentale @bikenite A8 Lovely ride yesterday to Wasdale Head. Weather was lovely. Heading up I made great time - only realised when heading back that I had a strong tailwind helping me!

Out and about teaching some geology in the Lake District again. The alien tourist is checking out a vein of quartz, feldspar and pyrite in a granite (Shap granite). The big pink minerals are K-feldspar. #Geology #Granite #LakeDistrict
