Bald on top

Walla Crag is bald on top.  Perhaps all the undergrowth has been worn away by the feet of the vast numbers of visitors who have stood there over many years, gazing out over Derwent Water and Keswick, or - as here - into Borrowdale.  Heather and grass have given up trying to grow there.  The summit of Catbells is in a similar state, probably for the same reason.  The two fells are like two bald little fellows, facing each other across the lake - two very popular bald little fellows, who attract many admirers.
