Different day, same weather

Today the weather was very similar to yesterday. Fortunately we more or less managed to avoid the showers, whereas yesterday we were in the middle of them. Today we walked from Skelwith Bridge, up the Cumbria way to Colwith Force, on to Little Langdale, Slater's Bridge and Little Langdale Tarn. Then we crossed to Elterwater and back to Skelwith via Eltermere and along the River Brathay.

A delightful footpath through land that is owned and managed by The National Trust.

Colwith Force, a beautiful part of the river, but worryingly slippy underfoot today due to the damp tree roots.

A late Speedwell still in flower and one of the last Water Lilies still standing in the river at Slater's Bridge.
