Tarn Hows

Walked on 13/12/2006

Tarn Hows

Water, water everywhere again today and it was blowing a hooley too! This was not a day for the high fells, so instead we took a rather lonely walk around Tarn Hows. The water levels are very high at the moment; Coniston Water looks ready to breach its banks in places.

Coniston Water looking full in the rain - the jetty on the east side of the lake is covered.

Tarn Hows - absolutely deserted today.

c 13.12.06-005

The Tarns are looking full as well today - the grass line can be seen beneath the water; normally there is a step down there.

Deserted and dull.
