Beautiful morning to be walking up Dovedale. Our project is going well and was great to see so many folk out enjoying the sun today.

Celebrating 50 years of Langdale and Ambleside Mountain Rescue this week. These peaks are special to so many and it was amazing to see them lit like this, if you were one of the lucky ones who saw it too we hoped you enjoyed the show! Image by John Shedwick.

Some beautiful light on our walk into Dovedale this morning. Our project is going well, especially with weather like this! @NT_TheNorth

Coming at you out the telebox tonight on BBC Countryfile at 5:45 and then if you’re lucky possibly again at 9pm on More4! Looking forward (and a little nervous!) to seeing how both of these programs turn out......

This section of path was a bit of a head scratcher. With a deep gully and bedrock to contend with it gave us plenty to thing about. We needed to stabilise the sides and ensure no more material was lost. We’re pretty pleased how it’s worked out! fixthefells

Ever wondered how we build a water-bar? Take a look at this to find out! On the day we did this it even helpfully rained so we could see that water was draining at the end of the day. fixthefells Lakes Rangers

Hands up who spotted Sarah and Rowan on BBC The One Show with Owain Wyn Evans. We were taking about how Rangers find working outdoors in all weathers...we enjoy it, even the rain! @NTNorthLakes @NT_TheNorth

Beautiful but cold day to be up on the fells. Today we were filling some bags high up Tongue Ghyll and then sorting our shed above Grisedale Tarn. Nearly there for our heli lifts next week!

Great to have Skyhook helicopters with us to get our stone moved in Kentmere. Tomorrow the plan is to lift stone onto Coniston Old Man, as such there could be long delays for walkers on the main path. As always we’ll be on hand to marshall! fixthefells

Today we’re lifting stone onto the Old Man.Due to the steepness of the path, we’re advising walkers there could be delays on the path between the summit and Low Water. Marshalls are on hand to keep everyone safe and let you know what’s happening! fixthefells
