01 December - Ascending the Coppermines Valley to Levers Water

A pleasant walk admiring the waterfalls. We joined a procession of walkers up to the Youth Hostel in the valley and then left most behind as we continued. It was a leisurely walk as we appreciated the scenery and avoided the ice. It had been -7 at lake level the previous night. The Old Man and Wetherlam were covered in cloud and showed their summits only briefly.
