After the weather of the weekend with more rain forecast I expected to get a good soaking today, I was wrong, after driving through heavy rain and patches of thick mist I arrived at the car park in Elterwater with the first chink of blue sky appearing above Langdale. Today I plan to stay away from the fells and do the classic Round of Elter Water, this walk can be found in most guide books and rightly so. it's an excellent walk taking in waterfalls and fabulous views, but not all guide books venture into the Cathedral Quarry and lets face it, who wants to do a classic walk and miss the best bit.
