The Old Man of Coniston 6th March 2004

Sketch map of the area
7:42AM St. Georges Hall (Liverpool), now quite a bit cleaner. Scaffolding being taken down after the building's scrub.	11:07AM Timewell's arrives in a rather busy Coniston. Emily and Ed are already zooming off.	Looking across from the foot of the old Man of Coniston towards lake Coniston. Lots of noise from a few motorbikes on the roads.	12:13PM A little Knoll on the Old man
Big puddle beneath the old man	12:44PM A bit of a rest on an interesting rocky out-crop. We're getting kind of close to the top now.	2:09PM At the summit after a dinner break.	The next bit of the quest...towards Goats hawse(Lever's water is off to the right. Goat's water off to the left).
Going down into a slightly damp Goats water. Dan said he liked the look of the water. The slightly different coloured patch on the tarn is a sheet of ice.	More funky rocks	3:05PM The view out of Goats water	The view for the 'Sketching break' looking toward South Cove hut
A very quick and rough pen sketch of the view out of Goats Water.	Dan's stand off with the sheep. The sheep stamped as Dan approached. Dan stamped back. Eventually they both called a truce	A nice big puddle. Boo Tarn, The Big Boo bear is hiding behind the hill	Dave's Ice cream van.. perhaps a little too cold for a visit today.
A row of terrace houses back in Coniston	Gulliver's Coniston: Big people, little houses	4:52PM: The rainbow with the point of gold somewhere off in Lake Windemere	...And we all ended up back in the pub in Coniston, at which point the batteries ran out on my camera. Oh well.
