YHA Helvellyn -> Whiteside -> Helvellyn -> Whiteside -> Raise -> YHA Helvellyn. The Met Office promised the clouds would lift, which they never did, entirely. But great views to the North and West particularly. With all the family. | Ham and Skate | 04/04/2024 |

Stayed in Toddhills Travelodge, Saturday night, met Alex McBride in Glenridding on Sunday 26th. We headed up to Birkhouse Moor first, past Red Tarn and on to Catstye Cam. They up via Swirral Edge to Helvellyn, had lunch in the X wind shelter, then over Lower Man, Whiteside Bank and up onto Raise. From Raise we descend NW, checking out the ski tow then rejoining the path at the old mine workings. Alex continue on for Sheffield Pike, while I dropped down to the hostel and back to Glenridding. 
 
06:35hrs all in, Helvellyn had intermittent clouds, but good views in between the clouds and on the other smaller hills. 
 
Helvellyn is my 6th and final Furth Munro (in England). | chillyman8 | 26/03/2023 |
