Today's walk: Knott


ice on the road in Mosedale with the ridge to Knott ahead


frosty fields at Roundhouse


River Caldew and the ridge to Knott


looking back down Mosedale from the ridge


Brandy Gill from the ridge


Knott from Coomb Height


Skiddaw with Great Calva exactly in front of Little Man


Great Calva and Skiddaw from the summit of Knott


misty view south from Knott


zooming in west to Ling Fell and Sale Fell


High Pike and Carrock Fell from Knott summit


icy on the traverse to Lingy Hut


looking back at Knott


approaching Lingy Hut ..


.. for the traditional New Year lunch of the northern Lake District Volunteers


leaving the hut with Carrock Fell and Mosedale ahead


descending into Mosedale with Bowscale Fell very white with frost on the right


ice in the little stream crossed on the way down ..


.. and sheet ice on the track through the old mine


Bowscale Fell and the bridge at the end of the road up Mosedale


the ridge to Knott from the bridge


still very frosty on the banks of the River Caldew


the traditional New Years Day hunt is up Mosedale ..


.. the unfortunate fox is in the bottom right hand corner of this zoomed shot


looking back up Mosedale to the ridge I went up this morning
