Red Pike - Wasdale summit cairn

Red Pike - Wasdale summit cairn

(map shows approximate location of subject not photographer)

There aren't many summit cairns that really are on the edge of crags, but here is one. You really cannot walk around it, it is perched on the very cusp of the sheer drop amongst the crags to Mosedale.
