ODG > Side Pike > Lingmoor Fell > Blake Rigg > Long Crag > Pike o'Blisco > Cold Pike > Cold Pike West Top > Cold Pike Far West Top > Little Stand > Stonesty Pike > Great Knott > ODG. Fine day with breaks of sunshine, nice breeze, just me and H. | johnkaysleftleg | 23/06/2018 |
Both tops bagged then onto the Crinkles for a re-visit. | Alan Caine | 12/05/2018 |
Wrynose Pass - Red Tarn - STONESTY PIKE - Little Stand - return. I doubt Birkett intended this to be the designated top. Another example of someone getting the wrong grid reference like Great Whinscale! | citygent | 30/04/2018 |
From Oxendale via Brown Howe over snow and through the mist but then just emerged into the sun. Both Birkett's and the true summit. On to Cold Pike far West Top. | Eddie | 20/01/2018 |
