Christmas
2010
Travelled Tuesday 21 December 2010
The weather conditions during the week were extremely cold with snow across the
whole region & lakes frozen over - despite warnings from Keswick Mountain
Rescue, the attraction to walk on the ice proved too much for many who walked,
skated & even rode their bikes across Derwent Water |
