Lake District 1 - Loughrigg Fell

8 May 2004

After a wet morning on what proved to be the only damp day of our week in the Lake District, George and Stephen visited the top of Loughrigg Fell. In rather gloomy conditions, a look north past Grasmere to the pass of Dunmail Raise

A rather brighter scene to the south, looking across to Windermere

As the weather improves, we pause on the descent: Rydal Water can be seen centre-picture,
with the impressive bluebells cascading down the hillside
