Gathering together at Burton-in-Kendal car park - but what caught Marie's attention?
Even more people getting ready to walk
Time to take a layer off - but it will be colder on the top
Holme Fell Crags summit
and again
Time to find shelter for our coffee stop - it's a cold wind today
Interesting limestone features
Mike checks the sign before he lets us enter
Looks like John has antlers growing out of his backpack
Layers of limestone provide a fitting backdrop for this shot
Is that the Pied Piper at the front - as we all follow dutifully in line?
Farleton Knott
and again
The wall provides a good wind break for our lunch stop
Left, right, left, right - but I think David wants to remain incognito
The limestone pavement looks quite barren in its winter dress
Speaks for itself
I wonder what gives the water its colour?
Perhaps the information board will tell me . . .
