A revisit to Carrock Fell and High Pike taking in all the surrounding Birketts and Synges, some of which I may have previously summitted before I recorded peaks. Parked on the moorland road near Calebreck, then followed the rough road up by Carrock Beck, before ascending Red Gate to the ridge to Carrock Fell, taking in Miton Hill and Round Knott en route. Then west to Drygill Head, and along a charming minor track over Hare Stones, Great Lingy Hill, and Miller Moss, before rougher country to Little Lingy Hill. Back to below Hare Stones before considerable descent to Birk Hill and re-ascent to High Pike. Then easy going back to Calebreck via West Hill. 19km with 800m ascent in just under 6 hours.silverwolf_alan14/05/2023
