With the unseasonal Easter weather I had to postpone this weekend’s backpacking trip – I am not equipped for such sustained cold weather when backpacking. I did get out for a day walking today – across the fields near where I live, but using some paths I had not used before.
One of the paths ran in the hedgerow.
I found somewhere out of the cold wind for lunch.
We spent the day walking around Sheffield city centre looking for good photo opportunities.
deep snow
We were looking for the museum, so Richard used Google Maps on his iPhone. This is where we ended up!
Here is one of the exhibits…
… and two more
Richard, Richard and I had plans this weekend to go camping and walking in the Lake District, but it looks like the weather will change the plans. Snow and freezing nights.
I was sorting through my photographs this evening and found a shot of Stickle Tarn that I could not post from my iPhone as the file size was too big.

It is a panoramic view taken from the dam at Stickle Tarn during a walk last October.
Here is the blog post for the walk.
It was a grey day for a walk but Richard and I walked down to the river at Washingborough.

Craigellachie National Nature Reserve is very close to Scandinavian Village, so with poor light and snow forecast for later in the day it is a good place for a short walk. As it was poor light I did not climb to the higher areas but stayed in the forest.
It was not so cold – so I found somewhere suitable, over looking the loch, to make some tea.
