Ey! But it's nice to see someone who takes axe factories so seriously ;)

Good to see the pics of Mickleden too. Makes me think of those hot air balloons you sometimes see in the lakes. That would be a good way to check the whole place out at once...

My mate does parascending - that lunatic thing with nobbut a bit o' fancy nylon to keep yer from smashing yersel' up. I'll ask him if it's possible to do a low level track over Mickleden. I doubt it, as he always says you get dangerous winds off nearby ridges, e.g. The Band over on Bow Fell, which can cause your canopy to collapse.
Worth an ask though, as the view from Loft Crag is a bit too high up to show much detail.
Regards,
TE.
