Respect for the Mountains

Respect for the Mountains

Wasdale’s Jos Naylor: master shepherd, master fellrunner, master stone waller etc. He built this cairn with the love and skill beyond that which is required for mere function. Like an art installation it is a silent witness to place and time- reminding us to do likewise. Reminiscent of the curricks built by miners in the North Pennines- people who respect the mountains which provide their living.
