My friend Dave came to visit this weekend, and after an aborted walk on the Friday (I got a call to assist Keswick MRT with a fallen walker on Sharp Edge), we headed to Haweswater yesterday.
With the cooler temparatures, I was expecting a dusting of snow overnight, but we were treated to a good covering at higher levels. The cloud lifted during the morning and by the time we got up to High Street, the tops cleared and an inversion took hold – it was stunning. I was also looking after Pete’s dog “Midge” for the weekend – I think she enjoyed herself too!
Here’s a taster…

Fantastic pictures… I had heard that it was stunning up there yesterday.
Cool snow angel, I thought it was some sort of Celtic Cross at first?!
Shame the weather has reverted back to the usual rain
I clearly need snow angel lessons from the expert then
Brilliant pictures Jon!
Great pix Jon; Skiddaw, Blencathra and the western fells looked amazing from Borrowdale with the low cloud and angle of light, but we hadn’t brought a camera, doh.
Excellent pix – just like being in an aeroplane!
[...] for Jon, some professional snow angels… A perfect Snow Angel, but who ate all the pies… Surely not [...]
