Burney (OF) from the Woodland Fell Road

There was a cool breeze despite the warm sunshine in the southern Lake District this afternoon. Once again it seemed as though our little corner had all the sunshine whilst to the north looked a lot cloudier. Burney lies on the southernmost tip of the Lake District National Park and offers fine views for relatively modest effort.

Tired already Casper? The summit plateau of Great Burney after the steep climb.
