LARAMARA is a hummocky Lakeland-mountain as lovely. as its name. It is a height upon which I have spent many happy hours, and one with which I have hitherto considered myself well acquainted.

To-day, however, it has played a prank ou mo and ahora me of over- rescising pride. This morning we climbed out of Borrowdale and up the steep flanks of Combe Gill to the wist- ful Itle Tarn at Leaves, which lies hidden in a hollow between Bossyboot and the crags of Rosthwaite Fell.

A hot molat morning it was, one which would have rung perspiration out of the leanest of mountaineers. It won a day much no that which induced a corpulent climber to remark that the rich colouring of the Lake District was not entirely due to its copious rainfall. The sweat of talling climbers, he con- tended, was also a contributing factor.

Everchanging Air

On the crags wo basked and looked back over Borrowdale, over sunut Der- wentwater to the blue heights of Skid- daw, on which the clouds hung low. Once we had climbed out of the date we found it a little cooler, but there was nothing of that invigorating fresh- ness on looks for on the hills: nothing like tint lively, blustering wind we had enjoyed on Helvellyn the previous day. laramara is not a simple ridge, but Y.100,000,000 more like a rugged spino with and dispinoed Y.130,000,000 numerous distorted

There was, of course, no need for alarm. All we had to do was to de-. scend and we should be sure to reach either Langsirath or Senthwaite, but in which valley we should And our selves there was no means of determin- ing.

For more than an hour we wandered round, trying to find some recognisable feature; but in vain. Then came a pro- videntini break in the cloud, and the upstanding peak of Pike of Buckle was visible, and sure enough we were on tho Langstralh side when we had thought we were on the Beathwalte slopes.
