27 04 2004 - Brown Pike, Buck Pike, Dow Crag and Old Man of Coniston with Paul D |

|
The weather forecast wasn't encouraging with heavy rain expected. It was cloudy and misty for most of the walk but apart from a few specks of rain on the tops, the day was mostly dry. The clouds even lifted now and then to allow us to get some reasonable photographs. |
