  1. According to the weatherforecast at http://www.mwis.org.uk/ there is a very
    good chance of a temperature inversion this Sunday morning in the Lakes.
    Does anyone know of a place for me to wild camp at height to see the
    inversion at its best, best veiws etc.
    Many thanks for any suggestions,
    Martin

    Not an exciting wild camp area but early December 2004 but Bonscale
    Pike was good for seeing thhe inversion

    How do you work that out? The forecast for Sunday won't be issued
    until Thursday afternoon!

    From the Thursday forecast, issued today (and may have been in yesterday's
    as well), under outlook:

    "A very warm weekend indeed, with higher summits possibly in very clear air
    above an inversion."

    With the moon approaching fullness on Saturday night, you may get to witness
    an inversion in moonlight, now that would be something!

    Of course the grand show would be, Full snow cover, full Moon, 360°
    Inversion (cloud top 2500'😉 and a show of the aora borealis! my dreams,
    my dreams ......

    ....which combined with the Saturday forecast implies possible
    inversions on Saturday. No mention of Sunday, let alone Sunday
    morning!

  9. I think I've decided on the top of Fairfield somewhere, lots of valleys to
    look down in the morning and the Helvelyn range also.

    Thanks

    Thanks to the forecast, I was up A'Ghlas Bhein early enough on Saturday
    morning to catch the inversion. The clouds were topping out at around
    900M, so I only managed a couple of snaps. Nice views of Beinn Fhada and
    Sgurr nan Ceathreamhan.

    I'm assuming there's not a lot of snow left up there? We're headed in
    that direction for Easter and not sure whether to pack ice axes, rock
    shoes, or Wellingtons!

    Err snow??? What's that?

    Seriously though, there's very, very little left and what there was, I
    was easily able to kick through with my (summer) boots. If the weather I
    had were to be repeated, it would be sandals and sunscreen - not wellies!!

    There was an inversion in Borrowdale on Saturday morning. I walked
    through the cloud ascending Rosset Gill and all of a sudden the cloud
    was below me and mountain tops began to emerge. It was phenomenal. I'm
    totally sunburned, and had the best weekend's walking I've ever had in
    the Lakes 🙂

    Nice :-)

    We were at Stanage, there was mist in the valley but unfortunately
    also at crag level. I suspect if we'd got up a bit earlier and headed
    for something a bit higher we'd have had an inversion there too.
    Sunday was just grey and cloudy all day :->

    You're very welcome! I'm v. glad you enjoyed it 🙂

    Incidentally, I accidentally said Borrowdale earlier, when I meant
    Langdale.

    Did you enjoy Striding Edge ? No problems with vertigo ? IIRC you were a
    *bit* worried about that.
