The weather has been a bit on and off today and I couldn’t decide where to walk. Eventually I ended up at Devoke Water where there was a cool breeze on the tops to make it feel autumnal and it was quite squelchy underfoot. I think I just managed to dodge the rain today though with heavy downpours either side of the walk.

Woodend Height and the old boathouse from the climb to Rough Crag. The bracken is starting to turn noticeably now and autumn is round the corner. When are we having summer then?
