Thursday 19th January 2006

Start point: Bowness Knott car park (NY 110 155)

Ennerdale

I opted for a low level walk today - the cloud was in at a very low level so I'll save the fells for another day. I explored the remote valley of Ennerdale walking around Ennerdale Water, the only lake in the district without road access (beyond the car park at the north-western end). Incredibly, although I didn't think it was possible, the weather actually got worse during the walk as the mist came right down to ground level.

Looking along the length of Ennerdale Water, Anglers Crag left and Bowness Knott right.

Connie thinks I look like a girl with one of her hair bobbles in; I prefer to think of myself as a football player or rock star...what do you think? (I've bumped into a few things recently!!).

More Ennerdale Water shots...

It looks like the rain's coming in from up there.
