Ski Touring in The Lake District

 

It’s finally happened! 

The Lakes has come up with the goods and winter is here!  We had an amazing day ski touring on the Dodds, a range of hill East of Hellvelyn.  Blue skies, cold and the sun was out.  And the Eden Valley stayed in the mist all day, so you could see a stunning cloud inversion from the Hills.

Here’s a selection of photos from the day.
