Glenridding Dodd & Sheffield Pike - A cloud dodge fail

This October's weather in general has been pretty poor and keeping with the status quo today's was no better. Unfortunately MWIS predicted a 20% chance of clear summits and heavy showers, something short & low seemed like the best option, Glenridding Dodd's lack of height virtually guaranteed a view. 

Avoiding parking in Glenridding I approached via the pleasant path that leaves the road beside Stybarrow Crag and follows Mossdale Beck as height is gained.

Slightly better than predicted up Ullswater...
