  Day 4,Overnight it had been windy and wet and the forecast we pulled in,gave more of the same for today  The Trailstar once again proved its worth as an excellent shelter for these longer trips in wild remote places,a brief gap between showers allowed us to pack our shelters away fairly dry The map showed an old Sami hut (Pielastugan) on the map so we decided to give it a visit,it sat out on a spur of land in Lake Bielajavratja Sadly its not in good condition and was rather mouldy and unloved,but it still mainly dry inside   We saw some blue skies and were hopeful of some dryer weather,heavy cold showers joined the wind the mix instead  The views out towards the mountain Bierikbakte,sat at over 5000 ft and at the foot of which we ended up camping  I had wanted to camp close to the foot of the mountain,but that would have meant crossing the glacier river,first thing in the morning,so we searched this side of the river and found a lovely flat spot,for an early c...

The weather had been dry for weeks,with cold nights and blue sky days of spring sunshine,i had noticed Richard had gone out to do another round of his excellent Lakeland Way walk,while i was at work So after a few messages i agreed to try and  catch up with him and hastily went to pack up for me and the Maggie dog        I never left home till after dinner so it was a busy drive up through the Lakes,sadly as i crested Kirkstone pass i spyed the bus a few cars infront of me,so i stopped at Hartsop and tried to blag a lift further up the road,with no joy,I moved on and parked at Patterdale,no luck with the first two folk i asked,but then a very nice man from one of the pubs kindly accepted my cash for a lift too Pooley bridge  As it had been a rushed start it was only when in his van i looked at his route,my mistake i was heading to far North so i got him to drop me off at the next road junction.It  was next to the Hallsteads Outward bound centre,less sa...
