| 2nd visit. Lovely icy sunny January day with a gentle but chill icy N wind - high pressure in charge. Perfect day for the start of the Winter Spine race (Pennine Way) which got underway this morning). 3hr circuit with L and the 3 dogs we are pet-sitting for at Casterton - the lab and spaniel loved chasing each other and play fighting all way round - ignoring all sheep. Back for lunch then all of us snoozing on the sofa in front of the wood burner. | Chris Pearson | 14/01/2024 |

| Verge parking to SSE by start of RoW at SD 6568 8094 (space for 1 car) - Up RoW as far as bend & then ATV track up to a gate - Through gate & then N. over sheep pasture to the obvious summit; the wall topped with wire fencing was easily crossed 25m or so SE of the summit. Reading moorsman's comment, I may well have missed a gap in the wall a bit further to the E. (S) | gerrybowes | 15/12/2020 |
