Hartsop > Pumping House > Rest Dodd > The Nab > Satura Crag > Brock Crags > Hartsop. Solo walk, light rain turning heavy for a couple of hours in the middle of the walk. Wind was also far stronger than forecast, I'd estimate 35-40mph. Had to bypass the hags on The Nab completely to the East. Very wet underfoot but cloud base kept high so views throughout.johnkaysleftleg31/03/2023
