Day 3/38 of my Wainwright Challenge linking all 214 Wainwrights in one walk taking 38 days to mark my 70th Birthday. Today with Philp and Laurence from Ashness Bridge to Stonethwaite, traversing Great Crag, Brund Fell, Kings How, and Castle Crag. A wet and windy day. 17km with 930m ascent taking 7h15m.Alan_70+12/04/2024

Second time.To make sure I had visited Wainwright top and high point in 1992. Hill seems to have increased a lot in height in 31 years.russell6129/03/2023
With: hb tp mt; From Great Wood up via Cat Gill to Blaeberry Fell. Then High Seat and High Tove down to Watendlath. Over Grange Fell and Ether Knott via Ashness wood back to car.Ian Baines05/03/2023
From the car park at Watendlath on a grey windy day with a driving drizzle at times. Followed the RoW past Dock Tarn, then using sheep trods across to the super peak of High Crag. Dropped back down to the Dock Tarn track and contoured round the west side of Great Crag, before crossing to Knotts. Then up to Great Crag (Wainwright Round 4), visiting both cairns, because I can never remember which is the summit. Descended down to the Watendlath/Rosthwaite highway, and then a revisit to Brund Fell (Wainwright Round 4). Although we have camped just below at the Thwaite House field countless times with GSAL Scouts, I have never traversed the ridge north from Brund Fell before, so continued on to the impressive Ether Knot, Brown Dodd and a tricky descent to Watendlath Beck, crossing through our campsite and back to Watendlath along the road in the fading light. 13km with an impressive 800m ascent taking me 4h 40m.silverwolf_alan19/02/2023
