The Beginning:
In the year 1920, immediately after the first World War, there was a great influx into Masonry and a group of Masons from the Willys Overland plant (a pioneer and manufacturer of the Jeep 4 wheel drive vehicle) situated in West Toronto, feeling there was a need for a new Lodge in this area, formed themselves into a committee for that purpose.
This group was headed up by W. Bro. W.L. Abernathy of Stanley Lodge # 426, Toronto and ably assisted by W. Bro. W.L. Clark and Bro. J.G. Bruce, both of Victoria Lodge, Toronto.
Having fulfilled all the necessary requirements, the Institutional Meeting of King Hiram Lodge, U.D., G.R.C., was held in the Annette Street Temple on April 29th, 1920.
After the dispensation, the Most Worshipful,The Grand Master, M.W. Bro. F.W. Harcourt authorized W. Bro. W.L. Abernathy and Charter Members to meet as a Lodge to be known as “King Hiram”.
On the 15th day of November, 1920, the Lodge was duly instituted and consecrated. W. Bro. W.L. Abernathy was installed in the Chair of King Solomon and the Officers were invested to their several stations in King Hiram Lodge #566, on the register of Grand Lodge.
The name “King Hiram” was selected as being the most suitable to fulfill the hopes of the petitioners which was to build a strong Lodge appropriately named after King Hiram Abif the chief architect and overseer of the building of King Solomon’s Temple.
It was resolved that the Initiation Fee be set at $ 75.00, the Affiliation Fee at $15.00 and the Annual Dues at $6.00. The Tyler’s salary was set at $100.00 per year.
The Worshipful Master appointed a Visiting the Sick Committee, a Musical and an Entertainment Committee. A committee to set up the by-laws, a committee to arrange for a Ladie’s Night and a committee to arrange for and provide Christmas Entertainment.
The first candidate to be initiated was Mr. John Rutherford on June 4th, 1920.
The Work for the year consisted of 42 – E.A. Degrees, 32 – F.C. Degrees and 19 – M.M. Degrees.
The Twenties:
The first King Hiram Ladie’s Night was held in the form of a reception in the banquet room. An honorarium was established to pay the Secretary $150.00 per year for his services. A special emergent meeting was held on Saturday, February 8th, 1922 to conduct 15 Master Mason Degrees which beat the previous record by one Degree. The Worshipful Master and brethren attended at the laying of the foundation stone at the Weston Masonic Temple. On March 19th, 1924, W.M. B.H. Capsey had the pleasure of initiating his son, Vincent Bertram Capsey into the First Degree of Masonry. It was adopted that the Lodge present to each candidate the Volume of the Sacred Law on which his obligation was sealed. An annual picnic was held at High Park. A committee was appointed to request the Temple Board to install a pipe organ in the Lodge Room and a piano in the Banquet Hall. King Hiram visited Niagara River Lodge in Niagara Falls, New York and on a return visit the Worshipful Master of Niagara River Lodge presented our Lodge with a gavel which had been made from a piece of oak from the Old Fort Niagara.
The Thirties:
A new Lodge was instituted in the Annette Street Temple, named Memorial Lodge, in which many of the members of King Hiram were involved. W. Bro. Gordon James is installed as Worshipful Master being the first Master of King Hiram who was initiated into the Lodge, all others being Charter Members. Grand Lodge institutes an “Unemployment Bureau” under the Masonic Board of Relief due to the economic circumstances. In May 1935, we celebrated our 15th Anniversary. The creation of a Members Night was established and the ruling Master and W. Bro. Gately of Memorial Lodge conducted the Ceremony. In 1936, Ladies Night was postponed due to the death of King George V and the Grand Master requested a three month mourning period be observed. In 1938, with deep regret we recorded the death of W. Bro. W.L. Abernathy one of the founders and the first Master of King Hiram Lodge.
The Forties:
It was resolved that the dues of all members enlisting in the Armed Forces be waived.

The intervening years between 1920 and 2005 have been momentous years of change in the History of the World.
Consider the Twenties, an era of building following World War I. The Depression of the Thirties. The conflict and hardship encountered due to World War II. The united efforts of rebuilding throughout the Forties and Fifties. The social changes and struggles throughout the Sixties and Seventies. The boom of the Eighties, the recession of the Nineties and the dreams and expectations of a new Millennium.
The years have also seen many changes in King Hiram Lodge. We have witnessed and shared in the lives of many of the Men who have been instrumental in the creation of and continuation of our Lodge.
Throughout the years the spirit of Masonry has always been kept alive and we have at all times remembered the wishes of our Founders, to uphold the basic principles on which the Lodge was established, “to keep this a friendly Lodge and to show true Brotherhood to All”. Our strength in the past has been in the dedication, loyalty and respect, for our Lodge by the many men who have affixed their signatures to our By-Laws.
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
footprints on the sands of time
– Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

The only career Nelson Eddy (1901-1967) ever considered was singing. The classically trained baritone achieved his greatest popularity through eight films with Jeanette MacDonald, with whom he formed a regular screen couple in the 1930s and 1940s. At the height of his career, he received more fan mail than any other star on the MGM payroll.
Nelson Ackerman Eddy was born in 1901 in Providence, Rhode Island, USA. He was the son of Isabel (Kendrick) and William Darius Eddy. His parents were singers, and his grandparents were musicians. Nelson studied singing as a child, and in 1924, he won a competition and was allowed to perform with the Philadelphia Opera Society. The conductor of the Philadelphia Civic Opera, Alexander Smallens, began to train and promote Eddy. In the late 1920s, Eddy performed with the Philadelphia Civic Opera Company and sang a broad repertoire of 28 operatic roles, including Le nozze di Figaro. Eddy also appeared with the Savoy Company, which produced popular operettas by Gilbert & Sullivan. Eddy studied briefly with noted teacher David Bispham, a former Metropolitan Opera singer, and switched after his death to William Vilonat. Dr. Edouard Lippe coached him and loaned him money in 1927 to study in Dresden and Paris. Dresden was considered an essential training centre for American singers at the time. Eddy turned down an offer of an engagement with a small German opera house and returned to the United States. He gave his first concert recital in 1928 in Philadelphia. When Eddy went on his first tour, he hired Theodore Paxson, who remained his accompanist for four decades. In 1933, he did 18 encores for an audience in Los Angeles that included an assistant to MGM studio chief Louis B. Mayer, who signed him to a seven-year contract, which allowed him three months of concert tours per year. Mayer ordered Eddy to test for his debut in the film Broadway to Hollywood (Willard Mack, Jules White, 1933). The 33-year-old newcomer took a record 58 takes before the exasperated test director gave up. Despite this failure, Mayer overruled the consensus about Eddy's acting talent, non-existent, and ordered him to be used for a singing sequence in the film only. The producers at MGM didn't know what to do with Eddy and only allowed him to appear for individual songs in his following films. But the audience reacted favourably to this.
After MGM acting lessons, Nelson Eddy's first real success came as the Yankee scout to Jeanette MacDonald's French princess in the Operetta Naughty Marietta (Robert Z. Leonard, W.S. Van Dyke, 1935). It was a huge box-office hit made on a small budget. The film was nominated for an Oscar, received a Photoplay Award and was voted one of the ten best films of 1935 by the New York Film Critics. Eddy made six more films with Jeanette MacDonald, including Rose-Marie (W.S. Van Dyke, 1936), and Maytime (Robert Z. Leonard, Edmund Goulding, 1937), which grossed over 4 million US dollars at the box office. Concert appearances became increasingly lucrative for Eddy with his film fame, but he only sang occasionally on the opera stage. His last film with MacDonald was I Married an Angel (W.S. Van Dyke, 1942). Nelson Eddy also appeared with other leading ladies over the years, such as in Rosalie (W.S. Van Dyke, 1937) with Eleanor Powell and Balalaika (Reinhold Schünzel, 1939), where he appeared alongside Ilona Massey. The Chocolate Soldier (Roy Del Ruth, 1941) was an adaptation of a Viennese operetta by Ferenc Molnár. Eddy appeared in a double role alongside Met singer Risë Stevens. Critics nearly always panned his acting. After the financial failure of I Married an Angel, Nelson Eddy and Jeanette MacDonald left MGM. In 1943, Eddy signed a contract with Universal for two films: Phantom of the Opera and Follow the Boys. The musical Phantom of the Opera (Arthur Lubin, 1943), lavishly produced in Technicolour, was based on the well-known novel by Gaston Leroux and songs by Edward Ward. Eddy appeared in it alongside Susanna Foster and Claude Rains but was so dissatisfied with the film afterwards that he abandoned the filming of Follow the Boys, in which he would have appeared again alongside Jeanette MacDonald, and left Universal. In his home studio, he recorded three-part harmonies (tenor, baritone, & bass) for his role as a multiple-voiced singing whale in the animated Walt Disney feature, 'The Whale Who Wanted to Sing at the Met', the concluding sequence in the animated musical anthology film Make Mine Music (Jack Kinney, Clyde Geronimi, a.o., 1946). Eddy appeared with Ilona Massey in his last film, the musical Western Northwest Outpost (Allan Dwan, 1947), produced by Republic. Nelson Eddy had a large radio following. His theme song was 'Shortnin' Bread'. In 1959, Eddy and MacDonald issued a recording of their film hits, which sold well. In 1953, he had a fairly successful nightclub routine with Gale Sherwood, which ran until he died in 1967. He suffered a fatal stroke while performing in concert. He was interred at Hollywood Memorial Cemetery, now called Hollywood Forever. Nelson Eddy and his wife, Anne Denitz, had no children. He had one child, Jon, with ex-girlfriend Maybelle Marston, born in the early 1930s, and he had a stepson, Sidney Franklin Jr.

RAF Eagle Squadrons - Memorial.
The Eagle Squadrons were three fighter squadrons of the Royal Air Force formed during World War II with volunteer pilots from the United States. Once in Britain, and having passed basic flight training the newly qualified pilots were sent for advanced operational training to an operational training unit (OTU) for two to four weeks to learn to fly Miles Master trainers, Hawker Hurricanes, and Supermarine Spitfires before being posted to a squadron.
71 Squadron commenced operations base at RAF Church Fenton in early 1941, before a move to Kirton-in-Lindsey. In April the Squadron transferred to RAF Martlesham Heath in Suffolk for operations over Europe. During May they suffered their first loss when Mike Kolendorski was killed during a fighter sweep over Holland. Intensity of operations stepped up with a move into No 11 Group of Fighter Command, being based at RAF North Weald by June 1941. On 2 July William J. Hall became the first 'Eagle' pilot to become a POW when he was shot down during an escort mission. The squadron's first confirmed victory came on 21 July 1941 when P/O W. Dunn destroyed a Messerschmitt Bf 109F over Lille. In August the Spitfire Mk II replaced their Hurricanes, before quickly re-equipping with the latest Spitfire Mk V. The unit soon established a high reputation, and numerous air kill claims were made in RAF fighter sweeps over the continent during the summer and autumn of 1941. In December the Squadron was rested back at Martlesham Heath, before a move to Debden in May 1942.
121 Squadron were formed at RAF Kirton-in-Lindsey in May 1941, flying Hurricanes on coastal convoy escort duties. On 15 September 1941 it destroyed its first German aircraft. The Hurricanes were replaced with Spitfires and the Mk V arrived in November 1941. The following month the Squadron moved to North Weald, replacing 71 Squadron. In 1942 it its offensive activities over the channel included bomber escorts and fighter sweeps.
133 Squadron was the last Eagle unit to be formed, at RAF Coltishall in July 1941 flying the Hurricane Mk IIb. A move to RAF Duxford followed in August, and re-equipment with the Spitfire Mk V early in 1942. In May the Squadron became part of the famed RAF Biggin Hill Wing. On 31 July 1942 during a bomber escort mission to Abbeville, 52-kill 'ace' Oblt. Rudolf Pflanz of 11./JG 2 engaged in combat with 133's Spitfires, and after shooting down one was then shot down and killed in his Bf 109G-1 over Berck-sur-Mer, France; 133 claimed 3 destroyed and one probable while losing 3 aircraft. P/O "Jessie" Taylor accounted for 2 of the claims (a Bf 109F and a Fw 190) and P/O W. Baker was credited with a Fw 190 destroyed. On 26 September 1942 11 of the unit's 12 brand new Spitfire Mk IXs were lost on a mission over Morlaix, when escorting B-17s in heavy cloud. Strong winds blew the unit further South than realised and short of fuel the Squadron let down directly over Brest. Six of the squadron were shot down and taken prisoner, four were killed, one bailed and evaded capture while one crash landed in England. One of the British pilots taken prisoner, Flt Lt Gordon Brettell, was to be shot as one of the escapees in The Great Escape from Stalag Luft III in 1944.
The Dieppe Raid was the only occasion that all three Eagle Squadrons saw action operating together.
Under American law, it was illegal for United States citizens to join the armed forces of foreign nations. In doing so, they lost their citizenship, although Congress passed a blanket pardon in 1944. Even so, hundreds if not thousands of American citizens volunteered to fly with the Royal Air Force before America officially entered the war in December, 1941. Perhaps the most famous result of this were the Eagle Squadrons.
La Zona de los Dólmenes de Antequera está formada por los dólmenes que le dan el nombre: Menga, Viera y Romeral.
La primera particularidad de esta necrópolis megalítica es que los tres sepulcros que la integran conservan el túmulo original. La segunda gran característica es que entre sí, cada uno de ellos, presenta claras diferencias técnicas y formales, lo que obliga a una descripción de forma individualizada.
El dolmen de Menga es una de las cumbres de la arquitectura adintelada en la prehistoria europea. Su grandiosidad radica precisamente en su carácter arquitectónico, en la creación de un espacio interno realmente asombroso que difícilmente encuentra parangón en otros casos del megalitismo europeo. A esta circunstancia se añade la magnitud de las losas empleadas en su construcción y el túmulo que, con un diámetro de 50 metros, cubre con 3.000 metros cúbicos de tierra y rocas toda la construcción. Para levantar Menga se aprovechó un ligero promontorio o amesetamiento en el que se realizó, sobre la roca virgen, una fosa ancha y alargada que ya tendría las dimensiones de lo que después sería el propio sepulcro y en cuyo interior se irían colocando, verticalmente, los ortostatos; sobre ellos, y con posterioridad, se colocarían las descomunales losas de cobija y los tres pilares interiores.
Formalmente, se pueden distinguir en el sepulcro de Menga tres zonas: Un atrio, un corredor y una gran cámara funeraria. La diferencia entre corredor y cámara está muy poco marcada pero, se considera como un "sepulcro megalítico de corredor", aunque parece en transición a otras formas conocidas como "sepulcros de galería". La longitud total del conjunto alcanza los 27,5 m. El atrio, propiamente, es una parte más del corredor pero, al tener forma trapezoidal y con la base más ancha mirando hacia el exterior, recuerda a una especie de soportal o "recibidor". Es posible que, parcial o totalmente, estuviera sin cubrir. En Menga, se conservan de él, restos de varios ortostatos desmochados a cada lado de la entrada. Por su parte, el corredor es relativamente corto y estaría compuesto sólo por tres ortostatos a izquierda y derecha, cubiertos con una sola losa o cobija.
Por otro lado, un ligero estrangulamiento que, sólo queda marcado por la distinta orientación de los dos primeros ortostatos que la configuran, marca el paso hacia la gran cámara funeraria. Esta supone casi tres cuartas partes del edificio conservado, con planta alargada y tendencia oval, está compuesta por siete ortostatos en cada lateral y una gran losa que configura, al fondo, la cabecera del sepulcro. Estos ortostatos pueden alcanzar hasta 4,7 metros de altura, incluido el metro aproximado que queda introducido en la zanja de cimentación, y tienen un grosor en torno al metro y medio. En lo alto, el espacio se cierra con cuatro descomunales losas de cubierta.
La altura general del sepulcro va aumentando desde los 2,7 m. de la entrada hasta los 3,5 m. de la cabecera; mientras que su anchura máxima alcanza los 6 m. Tres grandes pilares se alinean a lo largo del eje longitudinal de la cámara, coincidiendo con la unión de las cuatro losas de cubierta. La ubicación estratégica que hace descansar en cada pilar dos losas de cubierta, anima a pensar que se trata de un recurso constructivo orientado a consolidar la estructura y evitar derrumbes.
El dolmen de Viera, también está construido parcialmente en una elevación suave del terreno. En tal elevación o promontorio natural, se practicó, longitudinalmente, una zanja en cuyo interior se fueron colocando, verticalmente, los ortostatos. Sobre la parte superior de dichos ortostatos descansan las lajas de cubierta y todo el conjunto se cubre con un túmulo que alcanza los cincuenta metros de diámetro. La forma definitiva de la planta permite clasificarlo dentro del tipo "sepulcro megalítico de corredor". Así, presenta un largo pasillo de diecinueve metros de longitud segmentado en dos tramos por una puerta, con una cubierta configurada por diez u once losas o cobijas. Desde dicho corredor se accede a una pequeña cámara o habitáculo cuadrangular de 1,6 m. de anchura y 2 de altura, configurado por cuatro losas verticales y la losa de cubierta.
En el dolmen del Romeral tiene dos ejemplos de cámaras realizadas con el recurso de la falsa cúpula.
En su construcción se empleó la mampostería como elemento principal de paredes y bóvedas (las lajas de piedra se reservaron sólo para las cubiertas y puertas). Su planta y distribución interior también ofrecen peculiaridades. Así, un largo corredor de 26 m. configurado por dos largos testeros con un manifiesto vuelo o inclinación, da acceso a través de una puerta muy elaborada, a una gran cámara funeraria. Se trata, sin duda, de uno de los mejores ejemplos de empleo de la técnica de falsa cúpula en la Prehistoria de la Península Ibérica.
La planta de la cámara es circular, con un diámetro en la base de 5,20 m. mientras que el vano superior, cerrado por una laja de piedra, es mucho menor, con tan sólo 2,20 m. de diámetro máximo. Esto supone que el vuelo de las paredes curvadas presenta una desviación, con respecto a la vertical, aproximadamente de 1,5 m. Mientras que la altura total de la cámara ronda los 4 m.
Desviado unos 10 grados con respecto al eje longitudinal del sepulcro, desde la gran cámara se abre un pequeño corredor o pasillo, de construcción similar a la del gran corredor, que da acceso a una segunda cámara. Ésta, aunque está también construida con la misma técnica de aproximación de hiladas, es considerablemente más pequeña que la anterior. Tiene sólo 2,34 m. de diámetro y su altura máxima es de 2,40 m.

Part of Azzedine Alaïa: The Couturier
(May to October 2018)
Azzedine Alaïa’s innovations in stretch fabrics were at least as important as his elevation of leather. In his hands, these transformed the silhouette of the wearer.
Rather than creating clothes anchored at strategic points – conventionally, the waist and the shoulders – Alaïa’s bandage dresses cling to the wearer’s form, conscious of the entire body. The stretch fabric allows these minimal silhouettes to move freely.
Debuted in 1986, these variations on the ‘Bandelette’ (bandage) dress are clearly inspired by ancient Egyptian mummification, but also perhaps by the swaddling of infants. The garments join Western and Eastern traditions – highly fitted and precision-cut, with a body simply and sensually wrapped in cloth.
The dresses seem simple, but each band of fabric is precisely engineered and cut to specific dimensions, according to its place on the figure. These creations ushered in the notion of physique-delineating ‘bodycon’ dressing, the defining aesthetic of the early 1990s.
Conceived and co-curated with Monsieur Alaïa before his death in November 2017, the exhibition charts his incredible journey from sculptor to couturier, his nonconformist nature and his infectious energy for fashion, friendship and the female body.
Unlike many of his contemporaries, Alaïa personally constructed each garment by hand and refused to bow to the pressures of fashion week deadlines, instead working to his own schedule. His collaborative approach earned him an esteemed client list, including Greta Garbo, Grace Jones, Michelle Obama and Rihanna.
Rather than a retrospective, the show interlaces stories of his life and career alongside personally selected garments, ranging from the rare to the iconic and spanning the early 1980s to his most recent collection in 2017.

Whitehalls are the iconic American pulling boat. They are a specialized form of wherry.
They emerged in New York City and, possibly, shortly thereafter in Boston in the 1830's. It is thought the name derives from Whitehall Street in New York City, though no one is sure.
The boats were usually used under oars and occasionally sail as fast harbor ferries and the boat used to take harbor pilots out to meet inbound sailing ships. They have a fine reputation as fast, easy-rowing vessels.
Most Whitehalls were carvel-built with white oak planking on an oak backbone with oak frames. (Carvel planking means that the planks butted up against each other, edge to edge).
Famously, John Wesley Powell used Whitehalls (built in Chicago for him) for his first trip down the mighty Colorado River in 1869.
Mystic Seaport has several fine sets of plans available for classic American Whitehalls. www.mysticseaport.org
The client for whom we built this boat wanted a Boston bow and a New York stern (characterized by it's fine "wineglass" shape).
Master Boatbuilder Ray Speck and the students in the 2007 Traditional Small Craft class joined the two iconic shapes on the loft floor, a challenging assignment, then, as the client wanted, built the boat as a lapstrake vessel to those revised lines. (Lapstrake planking overlaps, like clapboards do on a house).
Under Ray's supervision, the students built the boat of western red cedar planking on a white oak backbone and white oak frames. The transom was mahogany.
The boat was finished in mid-June and delivered to its new owner in Boston, Massachusetts.
The Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding is located in Port Hadlock WA and is a private, accredited non-profit vocational school. Our mission is to teach and preserve the fine art of wooden boatbuilding and traditional maritime crafts.

West Calder Co-operative Society Withdrawal Book which contains 250 blank Member's Authorisation for Share Capital Withdrawal forms, numbered 10,001 to 10,250.
Book is bound in orange 'watered' card, with red spine tape. West Calder Co-operative Society was opened for business in 1875 by workers from the local shale mines and oil works. West Calder became part of West Lothian Co-operative Society in 1969 which in turn became part of Scottish Midland Co-operative Society Limited in 1982. The Society opened various branches in nearby villages, such as Tarbrax.
Co-operative societies began opening in West Lothian in the late 1850s. Customers of a co-operative store were encouraged to become members, or shareholders of a particular society. They could then benefit from the dividend. The more money they spent in the store, the more dividend they received.

We walked over the two tops that form the Screes, it rained low, snowed high, visibility on top was poor and then I decided to use the Screes path back to the car park at Wasdale. A big mistake in the wet, every boulder was deadly slippy. I only used the little G1X MK2, I carried the 5D but it stayed in my backpack for a change, there wasn't much to get excited about
We had a complete change this Christmas – we cancelled it! - we went walking in The Lakes, or Wasdale more precisely. We were staying at Irton Hall B & B, they had over 70 in for Christmas dinner but we ate jam bread on the slopes of Sca Fell Pike. Fantastic. We had a front wheel puncture on a run flat tyre on the new car with a 100 mile still to drive on the afternoon of Christmas eve on our way there. I drove straight to the nearest ATS – where I have an account – they shook their heads and directed me to Westhoughton Tyres, the lads there were fantastic and got us on our way in good time. BMW dealer advice was run on the flat tyre and then throw it away - £250! Where I would have got a tyre on the western side of the Lakes over Christmas I don’t know, ATS didn’t have one to sell me.
The weather was forecast good for Christmas day but after a fine start it was raining before we even left the car park in Wasdale. We headed up Lingmell and ran into snow on the summit. The path onto Sca Fell Pike was very icy, snow covered and visibility was low, the snow kept falling. We didn’t linger long, it was too cold to have dinner up there so we dropped down onto the Corridor Route, where we had our dinner. We went that way to stretch the walk out, having originally intended to cross to Great End. The tops were so icy, glazed, with not enough snow to get a grip on that we decide to leave it for another day. From Styhead we headed back to Wasdale and a dull but fine finish to the day. A drink in the bar at Irton Hall was on the radar.
Every morning we headed into Wasdale early, it got colder, icier and sunnier as the days went by. We went up Yewbarrow, it was an icy scramble up and I decided it was too dangerous to go down Stirrup Crag to Dore Head so went back the same way. It turned out to be the right decision as we lingered on the top, going to view points that we wouldn’t have and getting some decent photos. One morning we walked over the Screes tops, Illgill Head and Whin Rigg, dropping down the steep slope to The southern end of Wast Water. Having said that I would never walk the Screes path alongside Wast Water again the memory of how awful it is in the rain had faded. There is only really a quarter of a mile out of three miles that is really bad, every rock was like glass with the potential to break a leg every step. It seemed a long way and I was getting killer looks from Herself.
We made our way onto Sca Fell on a beautiful morning, clear blue sky. The snow line had got lower most nights but we never had the low level snow that caused problems in the rest of the country. I chose a, sometimes, pathless way to the summit, partly because I’d never been that way but also to stay in the sun, to keep the view and to avoid the ways that would be a touch dangerous, it was -4 and seared with ice for the last 600 feet. After 15 minutes on the summit wispy thin cloud came racing in, crossing the Lake District in minutes, the photos show it heading towards us and I was glad to have got the clear photos first. Looking out to sea a great mattress of cloud was heading straight for us. It was calm and sunny one minute and the next we were engulfed in thick cloud with 30 yards visibility at the most. I have never had a clear sky turn to cloud so fast – ever! We were going down to Slightside next which was OK, about a mile following the ridge down, the problem was getting back to Wasdale from there. We needed to get to Great Howe which meant a pathless trek a mile SW across Quagrigg Moss – a bog full of tarnlets, it would be a nightmare in low visibility. After getting some accurate compass bearings and heading down off Slightside we suddenly dropped out of the cloud and could see our target, brilliant, we legged it across the semi frozen bog and finally felt able to rest and grab a sandwich and cup of tea. We had to find our way down Raven Crags, which was interesting – and steep! We needed to get to the footbridge to get onto the Burnmoor Tarn path back to Wasdale. As we got closer to Burnmoor Tarn the light that I had been cursing gave us a gorgeous sunset. I had one eye on a gap in the cloud low down in the sky out at sea and I was hoping the sun would break through, it did. Burnmoor Tarn was like a mirror, reflecting the surrounding mountains, including Yewbarrow and parts of the Mosedale Horseshoe in the far distance. There was just the two of us, we had barely seen a soul all day, it was a fantastic end to a tough day. As we dropped into Wasdale I caught the deep pink and orange of the last of the sun, I was shooting into it but I had nothing to lose. There would have been quite a few tripods at the opposite end of the lake but I think I was in the better place – for a change.
On our final walking day we decided to head up Great Gable. It was clear of cloud for a change but ominously the surrounding tops, including the Sca Fells were cloud covered. Another beautiful but very cold morning, it was going to be very icy up there so we elected to go via Styhead and the tourist track. We would choose a way off once we were up there. Long before we got to the top, although we couldn’t see it, we knew the cloud was swirling in and out on the summit so it was going to be hit and miss for the photos. The cloud was down for the last 500 feet but once on the frozen top it kept clearing briefly – very briefly. There were more people up there than we had seen the entire trip previously. People were getting out after Christmas, many had parked at the top of Honister for the fairly easy walk in across Green Gable, some were not dressed for winter walking it has to be said. We left for an icy scramble down to Arron Slack, up onto Green Gable them we galloped down Arron Slack to Styhead and back to Wasdale.
