Whitehaven's winter wonderland

As winter start to make its presence felt, here are a few of snaps taken by the National Trust's Whitehaven and Ennerdale Ranger, Chris Gomersall to show its not all rain, mist and wind at the same time.

Sometimes its clear and colder.

And when snow falls the lake district fells are not the only place worth a visit.

So if its perishing outside then the chances are that visibility is excellent and if you can keep yourself warm its well worth stepping out.

Who knows what you'll find this winter. For more information about the Whitehaven coast visit the website www.colourfulcoast.org.uk
