The wind did howl and the rain did pour this morning for our walk to Caudale Moor. I had intended to go further on this walk but it was so wet and cold I’d had enough after I reached Hartsop Dodd. I think Fletcher came of age today with his first taste of some proper fell weather!

Looking to Middle Dodd - up until this point it had been absolutely chucking it down but the sky here shows the promise of a decent morning...perhaps.

Damp dogs on Stony Cove Pike, the summit of Caudale Moor. I think Fletcher has found a good hiding place from the wind and rain behind Dougal.

Twa dogs at the summit of Hartsop Dodd (full of cheery smiles too!), the old post marking the summit.
