Dave, Mark, Paul and I had a wonderfully magical winter solstice walk under a full moon the other night. We walked up Stickle Ghyll, over the Langdale Pikes, across Martcrag Moor to Stake Pass and around to Rossett Ghyll, where we descended into Mickleden to follow the valley back to Stickle Ghyll. The moon glowed brightly through a thin veil of cloud and lit the fluffy snow crystals like sparkling little jewels. We even had a small earthquake!

People across Cumbria were woken from their beds as an earthquake measuring 3.5 on the Richter Scale sent tremors across the county.
