| We sit and contemplate the high domed peak of Errigal, its white quartzy screes making it look snowy, beautiful, impossible. |
|
| From Inchnadamph, the grey screes of Conival's upper tiers contrast starkly with the lush pastoral tones of Gleann Dubh below. |
|
| No matter how hard I try, I simply cannot keep up with my guide, Alistair, who scampers over the screes like some tweed-clad mountain goat. |
|
| This can be found on the screes in the Torlesse Range some 80 km from Christchurch. |
|
| The landscape is scarred with great lumps of lava, volcanic plugs and long screes of volcanic soil, and there is also a vast barren sandy valley. |
|
| On three sides, cliffs and screes rose from a lake to the ice-cap above. |
|
| It grows on alpine north-facing mobile limestone screes, mostly over 1800 meters above sea level, confined to a narrow area of approximately 160 km. |
|
| To anyone to whom Maxwell means anything the towering screes of Beinn Sgritheall stand as a natural monument, a lasting monument, to his achievements. |
|
| An awkward ascent, hopping from tussocks to old stumps through a deep mire, and then a stiff climb up steep screes, led to the high point of the circuit, the John Garner Pass. |
|
| While Meall a'Ghiubhais is a straightforward climb from the path, the steep screes and formidable northern crags of Ruadh-stac Beag makes a direct ascent almost impossible. |
|
| There are ascent routes from this side of the hill but probably the most straightforward route is from the south side, avoiding the worst of the screes. |
|
| The cushion-forming plants such as saxifrages, auriculas, alpine pinks, campanulas and gentians do well on screes. |
|
| Landslide lakes are lakes created by the blockage of a valley by either mudflows, rockslides, or screes. |
|
| In Upper Wharfedale the scars and screes support a range of plants including the alpine cinquefoil and hoary whitlowgrass. |
|
| Less space is required than for a rock garden, and screes are cheaper and easier to construct, their main requirement first-class drainage. |
|
| If you look from Aviemore on a clear evening, the granite screes of Lairig Ghru and Braeriach do glow a warm red in the sun. |
|
| Much mine debris was, however, also taken out and dumped in the form of still visible down-slope screes outside the entrances. |
|
| The screes which cover the steep eastern slopes above the Kirkstone Pass appear to have a reddish colouration. |
|
| They had climbed Glyder Fach via the Bristly Screes but turned back due to the weather and were unable to retreat by the same route. |
|
| The plants that grow at the highest altitudes have adapted to conditions by specialization such as growing in rock screes that give protection from winds. |
|
|
|
| These screes formed as a result of ice and weathering erosion on the rocks of the Borrowdale Volcanic Group, that form the fells to the east of the lake, towards Eskdale. |
|
| The obvious way is direct up the screes from Lanthwaite on the Crummock Water road, picking through the rock scenery above to appear on Grasmoor End from the north west. |
|
| The list of customer-facing screens is long and includes digital signs, interactive kiosks, drive-up screens, ATM screes, remote teller screens and more. |
|
| It can be used to give a natural look to pond features or a contemporary feel to a garden and is invaluable for Japanese-style designs and alpine screes. |
|
| A path appears near the top of Middle Dodd, and then leads along the northern ridge to the summit of Red Screes. |
|
| Intrusions of the Borrowdale Sill Suite are found on Red Screes within both the rock formations just described. |
|
| Red Screes is an example of a fell which has taken the name of one of its sides. |
|
| Looking up the broad south ridge of Red Screes to Snarker Pike and the summit, from near Ambleside. |
|
| Red Screes and Middle Dodd seen beyond Brothers Water from the Patterdale Valley. |
|
| More loosely connected are Illgill Head and Whin Rigg, the fells forming the famous Wastwater Screes. |
|
| Starting at the Screes Inn in Nether Wasdale, loop the 260ft-deep three-mile lake via Santon Bridge, Wasdale Hall and Shop Wood. |
|
| Beyond Scandale pass, standing aloof, but still considered a part of the Fairfield Group, is Red Screes. |
|
| A steep valley to the east of Threlkeld Knotts, which begins immediately below Red Screes, is the clough from which Clough Head is named. |
|
| This appears to be a reference to a steep valley just below Red Screes, and which contains a sheepfold called Clough Fold. |
|
| Helvellyn Mine or Wythburn Mine opened in 1839 by the gill between Whelpside and Helvellyn Screes. |
|
| Red Screes is a fell in the English Lake District, situated between the villages of Patterdale and Ambleside. |
|
| This gives Red Screes an independence which is reflected in its prominence. |
|
| These two low cols mean that Red Screes is seen as an independent fell when viewed from the south of the Lake District. |
|
| The boundaries of Red Screes are formed by the four streams in the adjacent valleys. |
|
| A few yards to the south is Red Screes Tarn, a small permanent waterbody with no plant life in evidence. |
|
|
|
| It also includes the Wastwater Screes overlooking Wasdale, the Glaramara ridge overlooking Borrowdale, the three tops of Crinkle Crags, Bowfell and Esk Pike. |
|
| Contemporaneous movement on the caldera's boundary fault has produced a thick deposit of breccia above the Helvellyn Screes and on Browncove Crags. |
|
| Beneath Red Screes is the lower, rounded, grassy hill of Threlkeld Knotts. |
|
| It culminates in the height of Red Screes overlooking the Kirkstone Pass. |
|
| From Threlkeld Knotts there is a striking view of Red Screes just above, and a narrow path slants up through the crags to the west shoulder of Clough Head. |
|
| Another narrow path leads from Threlkeld Knotts, slanting up through the crags and scree of Red Screes to emerge on the west shoulder of Clough Head. |
|
| Thus the boundaries of Red Screes are formed symmetrically by four valleys, with the fell between them, rather than rising at the head of any one of them. |
