Seathwaite Fell, Allen Crags and Glaramara with Suzie and EmilyP333ebz03/09/2023
From Seatoller up Combe Gill then up to Tarn of Leaves. Climbed both tops of Dovenest and then headed to Combe Door and up to Combe Head. I then headed up to Glaramara which was a bit of a scramble the way I went. Once I’d been to all possible tops I headed back to Combe Head to visit the knoll close to the cairn as from Glaramara it looked as high. I then headed down over Thorneythwaite Fell to Seatoller. Time 3.5 hours for 7.35 miles. Weather cloudy; base just above summits clearing to sunshine.isabelle29/08/2023

Glaramara ridge with MKNab Scar20/04/2021
With Myla at her dads we got up at 4:20 we headed to Borrowdale with the traditional stop at Rosthwaite for a few mins. Parked at the NT carp park at Seatoller. This was a great walk seeing deer along the way. Even though cold we were shedding the layers as it was hot work. The views down Borrowdale were amazing as was the route all the way with a party piece 30/40ft scramble to the top with Pike O’stickle coming into full view. Bec walked around this scramble and met at the fantastic summit with cairn and shelter and stopped for breakfast. Full 360 views were out of this world. Could of spent all day there but the what I thought was “easy” bimble to Bessyboot was waiting.Scotty 2 Hotty10/04/2021
