10.02 miles, 3,807 feet, 3 hours 28 minutes: Traveller's Rest - Little Tongue - Grisedale Tarn - Helvellyn - Grisedale Tarn (up next to the wall, down via the zig-zags) - Seat Sandal - Traveller's Rest. Initially very sunny, but dense cloud rolled in from the north when I was halfway up to the tarn, and it did not abate until I was descending from Seat Sandal. No rain, very little wind, terrain mainly dry and firm. Very few people about apart from 30 or so at the top of Helvellyn. Car parks overflowing.

I waved to my angry friend the farmer who was on his tractor - he clearly saw me but did not wave back.
