It was a great spring day today – an ideal day for a walk across the Lincolnshire fields. I packed light so I could cover a reasonable number of miles in time I had available. I took a flask for my stop and made instant coffee rather than use a stove, again so I did not loose much time.

There was an excellent sunrise this morning that I watched through the patio windows of my lodge, which look out over the lake. I posted one of the early sunrise images as my “Photo of the Day”. Below is a later shot as the sky went pink.
I went for two shorter walks today. The first was along the coast near Barrow-in-Furness.
The second was up into the hills near Whicham.

Rather than drive anywhere today I walked out to Warton Crag from the Pine Lake complex.
I traveled light today, carrying some water and a small first aid/emergency kit in my walking vest – the rest of my kit went into my coat pockets. For lunch I took some breakfast biscuits, some cold chicken from last night’s dinner and my small brew kit. I only carried my titanium mug with lid and a couple of solid fuel tablets and made a small fire place out of some stones to heat the water for my tea.
I also carried a small heavy duty plastic sheet to sit on and my hat and gloves.
