Route Map
My waterproofs have been getting some use on
the last few walks, that is for sure! Today was no exception
as the rain never let up all morning for our short walk on
the east side of Coniston Water up to Top o' Selside. There
were no views and the photos were snatched ones in the rain,
but the lower sections of the walks through the ancient
woods were pleasant enough. We were all glad of the fresh
air, whatever the weather.
Bluebells in the woods and a glimpse of
Coniston Water through the trees.
It was more than a bit damp in Dodgson Wood!

from the climb to Top o' Selside.
A big shower passes over us and towards Low
Parkamoor farm in the centre.
Casper and Angus, wet on the summit.

Back out of the mist and descending towards

returns.
