Thornthwaite Crag
Thornthwaite Crag is a fell in the English Lake District, standing to the west of Haweswater Reservoir. It is a focal point of the Far Eastern Fells, standing at the head of several valleys.
==Topography==
The summit area is broadly horseshoe shaped, concave to the north with the head of Hayeswater Gill in the opening. The northwestern horn of the shoe connects to Gray Crag and the north eastern ridge to High Street and Mardale Ill Bell. Two other principal ridges run south to Froswick and west to Caudale Moor.
The north eastern and southern ridges enclose the head of Kentmere with scree and crag predominating. To the south west of Thornthwaite Crag is the craggy head of the long valley of Troutbeck, emptying into Windermere. Between the western and north western ridges is the head of Pasture Beck, which ultimately joins Hayeswater Beck en route to Ullswater.
The western ridge to Caudale Moor is narrow and rough, dropping very steeply to the depression of Threshwaite Mouth at 1,950 ft. The other ridges are broad and grassy, although there is some marshy ground when crossing the depression toward High Street. The southern ridge does narrow considerably before reaching Froswick.
