We are in the middle of a heatwave, with temperatures reaching over 30'c regularly. Far too hot to be on the fells in that heat, and far too hot to take a mad spaniel anywhere much. We think an evening walk seems like a plan and then we think about sunset
 |
| Spur of the minute when to go and where to go. We decide on Bowscale via Bullfell Beck and leave the car somewhere around 8:20pm |
 |
| Lovely soft evening light |
 |
| She's pleased to be out, it's been way too hot for dogs just lately |
 |
| Someone's got a good evening for a ride. That's Great Dunn Fell with the golf ball, over on the Pennines |
 |
| Nearing the top |
 |
| Carrock Fell |
 |
| We got to the top around 10-15 minutes before the sun was due to set. Needless to say we hadn't seen a soul |
 |
| It was magical being up there and seeing the sun fall below the horizon, but made even more special when we started on our route back to the car |
 |
| We hadn't planned this bit, but a full moon was rising ahead of us as we walked back down |
 |
| The light is beginning to fade |
 |
| It's nearly 11pm now. No need for the head torches we are carrying, it's a beautiful clear moonlit night. |
