Thirlmere Loop

A gorgeous autumnal run around Thirlmere on Saturday with loads of stoppings for photos, stick chucking and Harry swims. We also discovered a new lake for Harry to swim in, Harrop Tarn, which we have now correctly named Harry Tarn and at the same time advised Ordnance Survey of their original typing error.

Piney and larchy and ferny
