Lucy's 2nd lake district peak 
Great views fantastic area to visit 
Intended to do the buttermere ridge but turned back 50ft from red pike summit due to weather | Lauralj84 | 05/06/2020 |
From Gatesgarth via Seat, High Crag, High Stile and Red Pike - unbelievable weather (in a good sense). The descent to Buttermere seemed so much longer than the ascent from it. Plus ice on the stones made it fairly treacherous. Nevertheless the day was one of my best in the lakes. | garyhoney | 31/12/2019 |
Drizzly at first but warm. Ascent through birch wood from shore of Crummock Water. Took 3 hours but rewarded with great all-round views. | Peak Rambler | 09/09/2019 |
From Buttermere. Failed to scramble up Sourmilk Gill, so took path up on to ridge, via Dodd up to Red Pike, then along and descended Scarth Gap Pass. | welshyboyo | 26/08/2019 |
Started & finished at YHA Black Sail | AJWSmith | 02/08/2019 |

From Gatesgarth CP (£4 all day) Birketts walk HIG 2. Agree with Clivevilla descent from Red Pike is horrible. Maybe better done in reverse. | mart0797 | 10/10/2018 |

An early morning walk on the way to Whinlatter to climb this hill. Stunning conditions, if a little icy underfoot on the stone steps. | oldbagger27 | 10/01/2018 |

From Gatesgarth. Haystacks, Seat, High Crag, High Stile x 2, Red Pike and Dodd. Horrible descent from Red Pike.	c | clivevilla | 23/09/2017 |
Up from Buttermere village via Easdale Tarn on Wainwrights Red Pike route with a right turn just before the hause. Easy route to follow in poor visibility, which is what we had today despite better forecast. Decided against continuing on to Red Pike and High Crag ridge due to low probability of views, so back down same route for tea and cakes at Sykes Farm Tearoom instead. | Hillsidenick | 27/08/2017 |

Attempted to summit Red Pike, but sacked it off as a bad idea as it started snowing and we had a bit of a white-out situation... Oops.. We made it as far as Dodd tho and would of had some marvellous views if it wasn't for all the snow... | DAB81 | 01/03/2017 |

7th top of the day on the 6th and final leg of my alternative Bob Graham's round, starting from the Black Sail youth hostel. I climbed Haystacks, Seat, High Crag, High stile (summit & Wainwright) and from Red pike i scrambled/slid down the steep scree till i was able to climb up the path to the top. Great perspective on the tarn below. Re-traced steps to the col below and then took path past the tarn that neabders down through the forest (eventually) to Buttermere. | Dazingdale | 11/06/2016 |
