The photo of the two cortinas was taken at honister slate mine on the top of honister pass so the rocks are slate set up on end
The helicopter belongs to the owner of the mine He goes to work in it
If you have ever driven up to honister you will know why he flies in

Hi
Thanks for that.
It is one of thew climbs I have yet to do, I like Hardknott, done it from both sides, but didn't think Wrynose warranted any claims to fame, Laughing

Apparently they have opened up the old "steel path" that the miners used up the rock faces and you finish it off with a zipwire ride.
