Followed the path along the side of Coledale Beck before climbing to this for a coffee break, this way it felt like a proper summit.JohnStoneham04/02/2018
Force Crag Mine track from car park then Coledale path. The short climb from the path to summit took ages due to calf - knee high snow. Reaching the diminutive summit seemed a real achievement today!DC11main20/01/2018
