Walked on my own. Cold day (snow shower as I parked up at Roehead), but good walking conditions. Met a man on summit of Bonscale Pike and only a handful of others (including Richard Ellwood as I descended Loadpot Hill on route back to the car).

Lovely photos. And its good to see that the hills aren't too loaded with snow.
Hoping to be going up that way next weekend. Looks like I will have alternative walks if I don't fancy venturing too far into the snow.

The Glenridding fells look fantastic. Can't wait to get up there!

A good day out and great pictures, MR. The Eastern and Far Eastern Fells got a lot of Lakeland's snow recently. You've identified Fairfield correctly.
