Route Map

Weather: Dull, damp with a cold wind.

Today's walk was a round of the Coniston fells. The weather has taken a turn for the worse again and the clear views and picture postcard snowy scenes have all blown away - the wind was gale force at times and the rain relentless.

Above and below: 3D images of the route.
