from Alan Truelove --also the road up to Little Langdale (Langdale Pike)
from the
Coniston direction (i.e. as distinct from the Ambleside side
passing the lavish TimeShare development) passing Blea(?) tarn ..
this terrified my good wife and 2 kids, when I took the turn
up to Langdale without any warning - mind you, it was storming cats
and dogs with lightning .. a sight never to be forgotten!
I think American-born are more terrified because they simply have
never had the experience of driving on 1-car lanes with sharp drop
offs, violent turns ...
