Extract

About Easter, 1925, I noticed the curious course of the streams through the big deltas of Measand on Haweswater, and of Aira Beck on Ullswater. Both these streams, after having traversed about half the radial length of the delta, turn fairly sharply towards the head of the lake. This turn in such a pronounced degree is contrary to what one would expect.
