Rose Cottage, Threlkeld - Things to do

So, if you cannot understand that
there is something in man which responds to the
challenge of this mountain and goes out to meet it,
that the struggle is the struggle of life itself
upward and forever upward, then you won’t see why we
go. What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy.
And joy is, after all, the end of life. We do not live
to eat and make money. We eat and make money to be
able to enjoy life. That is what life means and what
life is for.
