Before setting out we visited the grave of Malcolm Campbell.

We finally picked up our rucksacks from the car and set off for the summit at about 1.30pm. The weather was mostly fine with just the occasional dark cloud.

Richard on the summit

We had lunch on the way up and plenty of photo stops (rests!) and got to the top of The Old Man of Coniston at about 5pm.
