Weather: Showers and a strong wind. 12C.
It was damp with a strong wind today making it feel decidedly chilly; I wore gloves throughout which shows how cold it was. There were quite a few showers but at least the strong wind made sure they blew away quickly.

Grike ahead (there is a descent at the midline of this photo, so not quite as easy as it looks here!).

Wainwrights treasure seems to have moved but there are still plenty of coins - I added by two bob's worth!

Grike and Crag Fell from the direct descent of Lank Rigg - I could see where the car was from the top so I went for it. I knew it would be a bit boggy going this way but the heavens opened too making it a bit of a damp affair. Then I had to cross the River Calder...good job it wasn't far to the car after that! On the way home, you guessed it...
