Boardale round

  The third route of this weekend was a tour around Boardale taking in  Beda Fell and continuing round to Place Fell. It was one of those days where the weather could have gone either way but we were lucky the cloud did last most of the time but we were treated to some wonderful patches of sun later on the route. There was the possibility of heading over Rest Dodd and down to The Nab but recent wet weather meant that the ground was quite boggy and anyone who knows the route between those two fells will understand my reason for avoiding that section today.

As we headed from Brock Crags and ascended Place Fell the sun burst through the clouds and lit the dark fellsides. It gave some wonderful opportunities for stopping to take photographs despite the really strong breeze.
