The weather worsened throughout the walk today, starting off as rain with the cloud quickly closing in on the summit. There was a stiff breeze on the top too and it felt decidedly wintry. Shame about the lack of views!
Â
Birks Bridge rapids. The distant pyramid is Bow Fell, visible for the only time today as the cloud soon came in to cover it. Some more shots of the rapids...

A misty summit of Harter Fell - Casper certainly seemed to enjoy it rolling around up there!
