A great forecast with early morning mist due to clear and leave a gorgeous day. For a change we planned a route on the Pennines, up a couple of fells visible from the front of our house. Knock Fell and Great Dunn Fell. So after picking Jay up as we passed virtually by their door, we parked at Knock. It was still very low cloud and we had been dithering on the way here, but the route we planned had a couple of possibilities for variation so we set off in hope.
It soon became clear (excuse the pun) that it wasn't going to clear. In fact, the cloud dropped even further, so once we reached about 1000ft and were faced with this...........
We decided to take plan B and stick to a shorter, lower level walk. Instead of about 9.5 miles and a height of 2500ft, we actually managed about 6 miles and not much more than 1000ft. But we had a nice afternoons walk and I managed to get one clearish photo - of the old quarry on Knock pike.
