Description

Took Richie out again for some winter learning and more nav practice for me. Sweden bridge to Scandale Pass, with deep unconsolidated snow, and very strong north westerly winds. I did a lot of timing and pacing in the deep snow, managing to be accurate 99% of the time, which was good for Richie to learn also whilst I did it.
The wind was very strong on the top of Red Screes, so we didnt hang about and headed straight down the south westerly ridge back to Ambleside.

Area : Eastern Fells

From the Kirkstone Pass to the M6.
