Intrepid hikers are being invited to take part in the ascent of more than 200 peaks to mark the 50th anniversary of the publication of a famous fellwalker's guidebooks.
In May 1955, Alfred Wainwright brought out the first of seven guides to the Lake District hills.
Now the Wainwright Society is challenging walkers to play their part in a week-long exercise that will see 214 Lake District peaks climbed between May 14 and 21.
The walks range from strenuous ascents such as Scafell Pike - at 3,209ft the highest English mountain - down to Castle Crag, which is less than 1,000ft.
Wainwright, who lived from 1907 to 1991, was known as AW to generations of fellwalkers and is still regarded as the undisputed master of the mountains in the Lake District.
The climbing week will help raise money for the Lake District Tourism and Conservation Partnership which organises footpath repairs and other environmental projects.
