With a dusting of fresh snow and a reasonable forecast our objective of the day was the classic Lakeland walk "The Fairfield Round". At 10 miles in length and over 2800' of ascent its no push over for a winter walk, and while its hard to get lost on the way up the ridge towards the summit of Fairfield, once on the summit plateau good navigation skills are needed when the cloud and mist is shrouding the tops.
Photographic conditions on the day were superb, the cloud stayed off the tops for most of the time and shafts of light dappled the fell sides, making some lovely images.
