There was time for a quick sprint up to Gummer’s How for a look at the predictable (given the weather conditions) inversion over Windermere. The weather did not disappoint and there were fabulous views from there once more in the early morning sunshine.
Up into the early morning sunshine on the slopes of Gummer's with a temperature inversion over the Leven Valley, Summer House Knott standing central.
Looking south-east all the valleys have low lying mist.

Looking the other way with a 'smoking' trig. column!
Plenty of snow and ice around this morning; it was -4C when I set off from the foot of Gummer's How.
Hoar frost is visible on the trees in the sheltered valley.
