8 mile walk from minor road to east. Followed road then steep path up to Causey Pike. From there it is an easy walk along the ridge to Scar Crags. Then we took the zig-zag path up onto Sail. From Sail we descended the zig-zags again and path across to High Moss, then ascended Outerside and followed ridge across Stile End and Barrow descending to minor road along path north-east from summit. 974 m ascent. Perfect clear and sunny conditions with a nice breeze. Saw a quite a few people about. Amazing views.DanTrig18/06/2021
