Circuit, parking at corner W of Wanthwaite Bridge. Threlkeld Knotts, White Pike, Calfhow Pike, Little Dodd (fairly meaningless 'summit' with two cairns), Great Dodd, Randerside, Watson's Dodd. Descended via Castle Rock then returned via ridge of High Rigg. Wen Crag, High Rigg S Top, SE Top, and High Rigg.RobertP12/12/2023
7th visit. On a solo 555 linear bus walk/ jog from Swirls car park to Keswick on a beautiful sunny autumnal day. Down to shorts here as the warmth of weak mid day sun just about beat the chill of the NE breeze. Great side lighting and shadow off all the Lakeland hills on this magnificent calm sunny autumnal day with blue sky. Low Rigg next then Keswick for lunch stop with local friend Martin looking after his 3 year old today.Chris Pearson21/11/2023
