9 October 06: Middlesex Fells, Skyland Trail

Columbus Day is traditional time for leaf peeping, and the weather is summery and beautiful, so I spent some time tromping around the Fells with a camera. Mostly I followed the Skyland Trail clockwise from Sheepfold Meadow, with a detour on the Cross-Fells trail (cutting off the loop down to Wrights Tower) and the Reservoir Trail (to get views of the water). Rather than writing a detailed description of the hike, I'll just post the pictures by themselves -- this is what the Fells looked like today.
