We had a short walk from bustling Bowness today up to the fell directly behind our back door, Brant Fell. Surprisingly there was no one else up there but this is really a great little walk with a fine view along Windermere even on a day like today when it didn’t look set to be clear.
I could see there would be a temperature inversion over Windermere this morning so after checking out conditions at the south on the Gummer’s How road, I headed for the shop and from there took a short walk up to Brant Fell. It is easy to forget about the places on your doorstep sometimes and today was a good day to explore Brant Fell a little with the added bonus of being above the cloud.
