Above Ullswater

Ullswater

Today was one of those barmy autumn days when summer returned for a brief moment. Molly and I set out to climb Sheffield and Heron Pike above Ullswater returning via Glenridding Dodd, finding several caches along the route.  It was unbelievably warm and before I reached Seldom Seen cottages, I’d needed to divest myself of a layer of clothing.  It was a steady pull along Glencoyne to the Sheffield Pike summit but we were rewarded with superb views. Although I didn’t experience the solitude of other recent walks in Scotland, it was a wonderful day to be in the hills
