LANGDALE PIKES, FROM OAK HOW. Oak How is near six miles from Ambleside. Mill Beck House is not seen here, being hid by the foot of the mountain on the left; it is likewise higher in the valley than the house seen under the Pikes. - Pavey Ark, in the last range of distance, is over the foreground rock on the right; and the greatest part of the line traversed to and from the Tarn, may be traced on this print, by such as marked their steps with attention; it is chiefly the beginning and end of this devious way that cannot be seen from this point. |
