18,000 years ago Cumbria was covered in a deep blanket of ice. This ice sheet scoured the country of all pre-existing life. When the ice eventually retreated, a rich forest of deciduous trees took its place - a thick dense wood which climbed much higher up the slopes of the Cumbrian mountains than the trees grow today. The hunter-gatherers of the Mesolithic period gradually came north into this wilderness.
