Parked to the E at the Powter How cp (voluntary donations). Barf and Lord's Seat and back. Deteriorating conditions with a whiteout on Lord's Seat causing the Broom Fell extension to be abandoned. Snow line around 400m. Solo.richard6902/03/2024

My fifth round of the Lord's Seat Group from Whinlatter to Wythop Mill, this time with Chris. Visited Whinlatter Top, Whinlatter Brown How, Tarbarrel Moss, Ullister Hill, Barf, Lord's Seat, Broom Fell, Widow Hause, Graystones (both summits), Ling Fell, Rivings, and Sale Fell. 20km with 1030m ascent taking 7h20m. Lovely autumn colours and great views across the Solway into Scotland. Glad we did not do Skiddaw, our original choice, as it was stubbornly in cloud all day.silverwolf_alan03/11/2023
Boo and I traipsed up the same way as Isabelle and we can confirm it makes Glastonbury in the rain look like a walk in the parkAlphaville19929/09/2023

From car park near Darling How. Followed the forestry track then followed the path signed for Lords Seat. This was a bog fest to the summit. Also took in Ullister Hill and went back down on forestry tracks. Time 3.5 hours for 5 miles.isabelle28/08/2023
Great views went up for a wild camp with flo and Jay with the intention of doingall the wainwright's in range however weather wasn't great when we woke, low cloud and rain. If there's no view there's no point for me I hike for the viewsLauralj8426/08/2023

Barf (M's first, as picked by him) and Lord's SeatBarns15017/06/2023
Today myself and Alma Aurea headed to Powter Howe for a circular walk taking in six Wainwright's - Sale Fell, Ling Fell, Graystones, Broom Fell, Lord's Seat and Barf, plus a couple of nearby summits. The weather was very warm and humid but from the forecast it looked like this area should stay clear of any thunderstorms or showers, which it did. However, despite the lower summit heights, the hills are relatively independent and quite steep it turned out to be quite a long day with some hot steep ascents! The walk took about 7.5 hours to cover the 15 mile route. /Dmeltdiceburg11/06/2023

Day 2 of a big weekend of BGR recce/training, but left the BGR on one side today to explore the Lorton & Wythop fells, starting from Powter How with Barf and going anti-clockwise. Bottled out of Whinlatter as the drizzle got heavier, but it cleared whilst taking in Ullister Hill & Seat How. A grand day out, with plenty of grassy running & a decent amount of bog for Hazel to dash about in.NumptyDumpty05/03/2023
