You've probably worked out by now that it's not about bagging summits or competing with others when we go walking. It's about enjoying ourselves ans staying safe. So when the wind started to get up this morning we set off with a flexible route plan, starting with Souther (pronounced Sooter) Fell.
 |
| Breeze doesn't really care where we go, so long as it's fast! |
 |
| At the top of Souther we start to make our minds up as to where to go next. Blencathra in the background is NOT on the plan, far too many folk up there at the moment with all the publicity and it will definitely be a bit wild up there today too. |
 |
| In the end we decide to head along the side of Scales Fell |
 |
| Below Sharp edge |
 |
| When we get up to the edge of Mungrisdale Common, we double back and start on the track down the other side of the Glenderamackin through Bannerdale. |
 |
| This is a wet area any time of year, but particularly so at the moment. Never the less it's still a lovely place to walk, and not difficult to get to if we want a short dog walk. |
A short walk on the road through Mungrisdale back to the car completes the circuit. We may have downgraded our walk part way round, but we still managed about 8 miles and it was a really enjoyable, easy walk on a wild day.
