This is home, but never been up with a proper camera!

Well Mike, I've experienced many wonderful landscapes but I have to say High Cup Nick was absolutely awe-inspiring! This was my first visit, the light wasn't good when I set off, but was fantastic for about an hour when I got there. I guess I was lucky that day. I live about an hour away, and intend revisiting many more times, what a place!!!! I love the description from a fourteen year old in Victorian times. approaching from what is now Cowgreen Reservoir he said "an' awl of a sudden there's a greet goolf, an' the world opens up to another land."

A magical place.

Great description!  

Its generally somewhere I'd go on my bike (for the decent back down to Dufton) so i'm without camera.

Will make a special journey with all my gear sometime!

It just looks like something has taken a huge bite out of the Pennines!
