6.5 mile walk from car park in Patterdale. We followed the footpath past the hotel, then ascended the main route up to St. Sunday Crag. 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. Quite a few people about. 801m ascent. | DanTrig | 13/09/2022 |

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 Dave | 07/07/2021 |
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. | Gazza1951 | 28/06/2021 |
