These pictures are taken from The Struggle to Kirkstone pass as I was staying about a mile up the road.
is the Lake District's highest pass that is open to motor traffic and it connects Ambleside in the Rothay Valley to Patterdale in the Ullswater Valley - the A592 road. In places, the gradient is 1 in 4 - or bloody steep if you walk it! Good pub at the top and bottom though!
