The predicted Indian Summer well and truly returned today with stifling heat and not a breath of wind – not bad for the end of September! The views were hazy though but I guess you can’t have everything although the sun did threaten to burn off all the clouds and perhaps it would have done if I had hung around for long enough.

Loughrigg Tarn was flat calm with great reflections...but with no view across it due to the cloud build up.

The sunshine is trying to burn through the mist over on Windermere but Casper has designs on something more interesting over the other way.
