Those of you who have been with me a while will know this view. It was my fall back plan for today if I didn't see a mountain hare. But I got up there in the fog and even though the light was awful I can't resist these pictures.

It's not overexposed in my opinion, but "Overexposed" was the name of the Boeing B-29 reconnaissance plane that crashed just sixty feet below the summit of Bleaklow killing 13 Americans in 1948, seventy years ago. And still, after all this time there is a huge visible crash site with the more durable parts such as engines, undercarriage and wing and fuselage parts scattered all around. It is a post-apocalyptic sight.
