LAKE DISTRICT SUNDAY 9TH NOVEMBER

Occasionally over the years we have visited Great Gable on Remembrance Sunday.
A plaque on the summit commemorates members of the Fell & Rock Climbing Club who died in World War I; a 2 minutes silence is held here on Remembrance Sunday. The club bought 3,000 acres of land including Great Gable and donated it to the National Trust in memory of these members, and the plaque was dedicated on Whit Sunday 1924 by Geoffrey Winthrop Young in front of 500 people.
Dolly Steve and I were there last year. The crowd quickly dispersed after 11.02, and we made a very good day of it by going over Kirk Fell and down its steep & rocky north ridge to Ennerdale. (see pics http://www.yorkmc.org.uk/growing-not-old/ ).

Looks like we might be doing something similar this year, the relevant Sunday being 9th November.
Anyone else interested ?
