Mardale and Blea Water Pano-1
I parked up and the skies were fairly clear, I could certainly see the mountain tops and their lovely winter coat. Rushed up the corpse road and in the twenty mins it took, the conditions had changed considerably for the worse. So after this disappointing start on the corpse road and a cloud base stuck at 700m, I headed over to Rough Crag, surely the cloud would lift by the time I got there. But there was no reward for my efforts of reaching the top of rough crag and very little point heading any higher into the clag, So a slippy slide down to Blea Water and back along the very soggy path to the car. I think my knee has just about forgiven me now. In this view was the briefest of time the sun poke its head through. Mountains in view (in theory) Far right High Street, center right, Mardale ill Bell, centre left, Harter Fell and far left , Branstree.
