THE Lake district ... consists of large masses or clusters of mountains, generally terminating in one aspiring and pre-eminent point, with the intermediate valleys occupied either by lakes and their subsidiary tarns, or by winding rivers." "The chief nuclei of these clusters are, Skiddaw and Blencathra, Helvellyn, Fairfield, Coniston Old Man, Blackcomb, Scafell, Gable, Red Pike, Grasmoor, Grisdale Pike, and the Langdale Pikes. Many noble and commanding mountains rise around these, rivalling them in height and grandeur, but still" goto source Page iv:- "serving as large buttresses only. In the presentation of endlessly-diversified forms, these Mountains yield to none, however individually inferior they may be, owing to their being seldom seen in a detached point of view; although, on the other hand, they have thus the advantage of forming combinations at once grand and sublime, towering above each other, or rising in ridges, like the mighty billows of the ocean." goto source Page 36:- "..."

Langdale Head and Scafell Pikes are quite close. On the right are Great End in Borrowdale, Seatoller in Yewbarrow, Great Gable in Wastdale, Glaramara and Rosthwaite Cam, Grasmire, Grizedale and Causey Pikes, Lord's Seat, and the distant coasts of Cumberland and Scotland.

It is the opinion of several people of acknowledged taste, that the mountains of Langdale afford to the eye, from many parts of the vale, a greater variety of fine forms than the mountains surrounding any other valley here. One of the conical-topped pikes, and a grand surface of rock called Gimmer Crag, are the principal features of the scene before us. The drawing was made at a little distance from Wall End, which is about nine miles from Ambleside." printed at bottom:- "GIMMER CRAG IN LANGDALE. / Published Ambleside, Augst. 1st. 1809, by W.
