5 February -- Ambleside
Heavy snow on the Saturday cleared away overnight leaving a fairytale landscape for us to walk in on Sunday
Everyone except the 'A's got off the coach at Bowness and the plans had been for two different linear walks ending in Ambleside. In the event the snowy conditions imposed some limits, and both walks ended up doing a very similar track: Orrest Head, Dubbs Reservoir, Troutbeck, Skeighlly Wood and Ambleside. The following pictures are drawn from both parties (though not necessarily in the right order!).
B Party start up Orrest Head

Roger's very steep and extremely slippy shortcut!
			Late afternoon reflections on Windermere
The 'A' walk started from Ambleside and headed north along the river Rothay
Hope we don't need these
				Don't mess with us, we're the 'A' team..
..and we've got the snowballs to prove it!
