Troutbeck Tongue from the roadside with Ill
bell behind with a dusting of snow. |
|

Windermere form near the
summit of Kirkstone pass. A hard frost meant the surface water was frozen
on the land.
|
|

I parked at the Kirkstone
Pass Inn before heading up onto the fell.
|
|

Brotherswater from the
slopes of Caudale Moor.
|
|

Across Kirkstone Pass Red
Screes has also a dusting of snow.
|
|

Zeta is also pleased to
be out on the hills once again.
|
|

Path repairs in progress,
heavy recent rains have made the problem more acute.

The head of Windermere
seen from the descent back to Kirkstone pass. On my return to the car I
drove north towards the Ullswater valley.
|
|

Flood damage near Cow
Gate.
|
|

Across the road the
waters not only demolished the walls but spread the stones for a distance
into the fields.
|
|

The roadside north of
Glenridding has been eroded by the high levels of the lake which can be
seen on the right, now back to more normal levels.
|
|

Looking back along the
road from near Pooley Bridge. You can see how high the waters were by the
"High Tide line in the field on the right.
Hopefully my next days
out will be in conditions with better light. |
