🍂🍁 Welcoming in the autumn equinox with a sp 🍂🍁 Welcoming in the autumn equinox with a spontaneous breakfast on the fells before work Here is to crisp autumn walks, cosy nights and cloud inversion mornings on the hills ✨ . . . #lakedistrict #momentslikethese #fromlakelandwithlove #lakedistrictviews #rydal #autumnequinox #autumnequinox2022 #helloautumn
September….one foot in summer, one foot in autum September….one foot in summer, one foot in autumn The day started with that autumn nip in the air, pink skies and a cloud inversion hanging low over the family. By lunchtime, it was summer. Bare arms, sunhat, ice creams. I took a slow ramble up the uneven path to Easedale Tarn, a jewel hidden in the still green mountains, Sour Milk Ghyll tumbling dramatically on the way. The last September I was here two years ago with my best friend, the autumn winds blew fierce and cold. But today, not a breath of wind. Glassy, still water as I eased myself in, a tiny gasp at the cold, the tiny nibble of fish beneath my feet and the ducks swimming serenely past. A scene out of summer on a mid Septembers day ❤️ . . . #easedaletarn #wildswimminguk #fromlakelandwithlove #lakedistrict #onelakedistrict #lakedistrictwalks

Celebrating climbing 75 Wainwrights yesterday on B Celebrating climbing 75 Wainwrights yesterday on Beda Fell bear Ullswater - over 1/3 of the way through all 214 Wainwrights! It feels like a lifetime ago since my first on Latrigg in April 2019 shortly after I moved to the Lakes. My original plan was to try and finish them by the time I’m 40 (in May 2025). But after trying to play catch up after the pandemic and injury, the goal began to feel more of a burden than an inspiration. So I let the goal go and decided to go at my own pace. I’m quite a slow hiker and not having a car means I’m quite often restricted to (usually running for!) last buses back, too. But I really love this slow, lack of expectation pace now. It’s one of taking the time to appreciate the views, the seasons, my mood. To stop for breaks and scribble down words, linger in cafes before setting off, and allow me to be in the moment rather than moving quickly in the name of ticking off hills. I can trace a map or a skyline and remember each and every adventure captured in my heart and mind - here’s to the next 139⛰ . . . . #lakedistrict #lakedistrictuk #lakedistrictnationalpark #lakedistrictcumbria #lakedistrictphotography #thelakedistrict #igerslakedistrict #lakedistrictlife #lakedistrictnpa #lakedistrictadventures #lakedistrictviews #lakedistrictlandscapes #lakedistrictengland #lakedistrictphotos #cumbria #cumbrialife #fromlakelandwithlove #thelakelanders #visitcumbria #igerscumbria #lakesography #explorelakedistrict #onelakedistrict #lovethelakes #getinspiredgetoutside #thegreatoutdoors #wainwrights #wainwrightbagging #wainwrightwalks
Highlights from the slow burn summer of ‘22 Wi Highlights from the slow burn summer of ‘22 With starting a new job in May and taking on a little more freelance work, the balance between work and adventure sometimes felt a little off this year, esp during this last month. But taking a moment to reflect tonight on this summer gone by, I found so many wonderful small moments that bought me joy. It might not have been to big flash adventures of my 20’s but it was a slow burn summer of love and these were the highlights: ⛰Wainwright #74 on Armboth amongst the August heather 💦A spontaneous evening swim in Rydal 🥾On the Helvellyn ridge on Jubilee weekend 🌊 Hiking the Cumbrian coast path 🏊 An evening swim at Askham Community pool 🌼 A spontaneous after work hike amongst the wildflowers in Langdale ⛺️Wild camping at Small Water tarn near Haweswater 💦 A cool dip & book reading on a sweltering summers day in Buttermere ✨A magical stay at @thehuteyam in the Peak District with a farewell BBQ with a dear friend 🛶 Playing tourist for the day of Windermere taking the boat to Wray Castle and walking the western shore 🍂 So excited for autumn adventures and getting back into writing!
