Gasped my way up to Monksmoor tonight, which was still looking Arctic. I know it's not to everyones taste, but I just adore it when the fells are dressed in those cryptic bands of snow - the contrast between light and dark.
Tawny hoots below,
Snow begrudging, shows the way,
Mudclaws growl at ice.
:)
Nice haiku Mossy.Quote:

I think 'Mudclaws growl at ice' is wonderful Mossy :)
Not real snow here now. Just the occasional icy patch at the weekend and residual lines of stubborn stuff along the higher fell walls :(
More snow on the Howgills since Thursday. :eek: But only a sprinkling to make it look cold and scenic.Quote:

Sorry about that. :o I really should have stopped after my first haiku tonight! I've gone downhill faster than Ted Mason ever since. :)
This is really lovely...i am envious on two counts...not living near snowy hills and not running on them recently! .....:)Quote:
