A Lake District mountain rescue team has urged walkers to make sure they are prepared.
Wasdale Mountain Rescue Team said conditions were getting very challenging on Scafell Pike, and shared a photograph of the same place just two hours apart.
It warned that with further rain forecast, it was likely that the ‘stream’ crossing on the tourist path would be impassable at times.

Ask yourself three questions before you set off:
- Do I have the right gear?
- Do I know what the weather will be like?
- Am I confident that I have the knowledge and skills for the day?
