It’s International Mountain Day today so here’s an iconic photograph of Wasdale in winter raiment taken last year.

One of my favourite views of some of my favourite local hills.

An excellent hike today over Robinson, Hindscarth, Dale Head, High Spy, Maiden Moor and Catbells.

Starting from Little Town car park, it was -4°C when we left.

Stunning views throughout but very cold day.

There’s obviously a load of people joined recently. Some, like me, just joined to see what it’s like. Others are fleeing X and are asking if anyone else they knew is here. So I’ve put together a pack of folk from that community so we can find each other. I’ll add to it as we go.

Just figuring out how this place works while my finger hovers over the delete button on that toxic other place.

Here’s a photo of the Lakes in wintry times to muse over.
