The promised clear weather never materialised today, in fact it was the opposite as the clouds and clag closed in as the day went on. I was looking forward to this one as a new route for me, I must go back and do it on a fine day as I think the views would be brilliant from Greenhow End. This route will feature in a future edition of Trail Magazine.

Fletcher, full of smiles! On Sunday 9th November I took the dogs out but it was hammering it down in the south Lakes.

We ended up back at Burney for a quick fell walk. We were completely sodden! On with today's walk...

Place Fell from Deepdale Bridge. There was a glimmer of light and it was looking (dare I say it?) promising.

A bit damp and a bit steep climbing up Greenhow End, looking back into Deepdale. There wasn't much to take photos of for a good while after this. Dougal was recognised on Fairfield by a couple of StridingEdge fans, I helped a chap get the right path from Fairfield to Cofa Pike and Dougal was again recognised on the climb to St. Sunday!
