Tricky navigation at times doing this round anti clockwise, until dropping down out the mist just before Gibson Knott and wonderful views opening up. 
Climbed to top of Howitzer, something WW himself never did; although just a hand on the summit had to suffice, because im not completely reckless.. | Alfa1M | 27/03/2024 |

A circular round of Far Easdale from Grasmere, visiting Tarn Crag, Calf Crag, Steel Fell, Gibson Knott, and Helm Crag. Much of the day spent in low cloud with drizzle on and off. Ground quite wet and slippery in places. 20km with 940m ascent, taking me 7h30m. | silverwolf_alan | 28/10/2023 |
