Coledale Round and weird clouds

It was definitely too hot and sunny for a serious fell walk. Starting from Braithwaite we headed up the seemingly never-ending climb of Grisedale Pike which is very steep and covered in scree near the top. From there we walked around the Coledale Valley over Hopegill Head, Sand Hill, Crag Hill, Sail, Outerside and Barrow. 10 miles and just on 4000' of ascent. On our route in the valley between Crag Hill and Grasmoor (not visited today) the oddest cloud formation appeared which resembled a car. I could have done with a lift at that point as I was flagging in the midday sun. A couple of extras showing the cloud as it morphed into something else and the view from the top of Sail as we started down on the zig-zag path.
