 Standing on top of a mountain with the whole panorama available for view is deeply rewarding, whether it be for the first or for the thousandth time. To do so knowing you are well equipped to look after yourself, and knowing that you can get yourself safely back to the car if the cloud comes down, adds another dimension of personal satisfaction. |

 What do you put in your rucsack for a day on the hill? |

 |
 How long will the day take? |

 |
 |
 Which way up does the map go? |

 If the cloud comes down and you can't see much beyond your nose and there is only one safe way off the hill, would you be able to find it? |

 Are you ready to progress from the valley walk to a day on the high fells? |
