A lovely summer's morning at Grisedale Tarn
|
The stone circle you see at the bottom was to be the site of Stonehenge. After getting a start on the project, the builders ran into problems with environmental permits and labor regulations. It was decided to move the project south to take advantage of tax abatements being offered by Sarum |
We had a short day today that actually was short. We made the 8 miles to Patterdale by 1:30, still slower than the guidebook expected. Keith checked in at a hotel in town, while Earl, Lois, and I are at a B&B outside of town. We took the low route today. We were tracking another group on the high route by their raincoats. The same thing happened yesterday as we were tracked by our raincoats when we were up high.
The weather is not bad. No rain today, raincoats for the wind. Lots of fog in places. We passed what was supposed to be a nice lake but could only see 20 yards out onto the lake.
