| Comments: | A quick afternoon walk on a sunny September Saturday - along with the hundreds of others who had the same idea! I was able to find some less popular routes to reach Rivington Pike which was the busiest I have ever seen it. | ||
Not usually walking beside this part of the reservoir . . .
I was surprised to see a few yachts . . .
with a lot of activity at the sailing club
Rivington Pike was very popular today . . .
and a cyclist had decided to join the walkers
Anglezarke and Upper Riivngton Reservoirs . . .
Lower Rivington Reservoir
It's diddicult to work out which parts are real and which are the reflections . . .
