Weather: Overcast, the tops in cloud. 8°C
The weather returned to being dull and damp after the rather more glamorous conditions of last Thursday. The tops were in cloud until the very end when the sun made a brief appearance. I can hardly believe it is 3 years since I last visited Base Brown, how time flies! I think conditions were similar last time I was there as well; I must visit it in the sunshine one day.

Here's one for the record, something you don't see very often - the road at Seathwaite deserted! For the uninitiated, there are cars as far as the eye can see in summer.

Gillercomb through the mist. The rest of the walk up to Green Gable then back to Brandreth and Grey Knotts was completely under cover of the mist.
