We retraced our steps to the col then very easily climbed up along ridge to Birks. From Birks we took the grassy trail leading us to Arnsion Crag, then descended back to footpath, then back to car park. Clear and sunny conditions.

Came up from Gavel Pike. Solo. Climbed down the scree to look at Pinnacle Ridge on the way back down to the van at Patterdale. W146 Rnd6.Dangerous Dave07/07/2021
Alone. Warm & sunny. From Dunmail Raise. Bit of a slog st times, especially up slope of SSC, but worth it for the views. Intended to continue on to Birks, but it looked just a boring grassy slope. Could have descended up & over Fairfield but would have been challenging and was getting pretty tired by then.Gazza195128/06/2021
