looking down the path up Mousthwaite Comb

looking up the path out of Mousthwaite Comb

above Mousthwaite Comb with Blencathra in mist ahead

descending to River Glenderamackin with Bannerdale Crags in mist ahead

crossing River Glenderamackin ..

.. and proceeding to its head in gently falling snow

heading for the top of Bannerdale Crags

Elizabeth and Margaret at the cairn on Bannerdale Crags

heading along the top of the crags

dropping below the mist on the path beside The Tongue

entering Mungrisdale village

returning on the gated road below Souther Fell

a magnificent oak beside the road

looking back at the same oak tree

Blencathra ahead as the weather brightens

looking eastwards from the road ..

.. and westwards as the sun appears
