Chunda Tours

Snowy Ambleside form Milesotnes

This is a live posting from Chunda Tours 2010. We have had two full days of low cloud and rain. During the night the rain changed to snow and now we have a winter wonderland scene.

Despite the weather, we have been walking every day. On Sunday Angus, Steamy and Haydn went to the Coniston Group and climbed the Old Man. The ascent was not without incident as Steamy slipped on ice and dislodged a snooker table sized slab of rock which threatened the existence of Haydn. Fortunately everyone lived to tell the tale. The only casualty was Steamy’s boxer shorts , which like the shroud in the temple were ripped from top to bottom. The have been offered to the Ambleside museum to augment their mountaineering memorabilia, We have not heard yet whether they need to be washed first.
