Black Combe, Cumbria, England
Above is A.J. in the hilly Lake District in Cumbria, northwestern England. He decided to hike naked up to the top of Black Combe, for a distance of 2.6 miles and an elevation gain of 1880 feet.
Starting the hike.
Continuing up the hill.
Climbing up.
Near the top. A.J.'s photos make the trail look worse than it is. There is a trail all the way to the top. The trail is not well marked in places, but it does not require climbing over rocks.
At the trig at the summit. A trig is a triangulation station that was used for surveying before GPS became available.
The view from the top. That's the Irish Sea to the west.

Mighty nice view in that last picture.
Gives a great sense of the vastness of the English countryside. And of its unashamed hikers.
@SickoRicko - I thought you might like that view.
No tan line !!
