Haycock from Scoat Tarn - a photo on Flickriver

Haycock from Scoat Tarn

            Haycock is an imposing dome shaped hill that is located in the western sector of the Lake District National Park. It rises to 2,615 feet above sea level and is one of numerous tops that lie on the ridge of high ground between Ennerdale[Anundr’s Valley] and Wasdale [the valley of the lake]. The name Haycock is most probably derived from the Old English words heg (hay) and cocc (a heap), the stony upper dome of the hill presumably bearing some resemblance to a haystack.

The picture was taken looking north-westwards towards Haycock from the shore of Scoat Tarn.
