| Started at 9am after eventually locating path behind cottages. Very steep ascent in muggy conditions with occasional heavy shower. Relieved to reach summit after 1 hour. Grass so wet I slid nearly all the way down. Great views over Ullswater but won't repeat. | Peak Rambler | 30/07/2019 |

| Glenridding Dodd, Heron Pike & Sheffield Pike - up and back from Glenridding car park via The Rake. High temperatures made the steep climb even harder work, although it was still worth it for the stunning views from all three summits. Justin got attached by flies on Glenridding Dodd and stomped off in a huff, flailing his walking pole like a madman. | wheresthepath | 25/06/2018 |

| Started in glenridding following the path up to the YHA then taking a right path next to the mines. This follows the water up and you cross to ascend to Sheffield pike. Foot paths and eady route to follow. Then over onto glenridding Dodd....some small sections on this path needed care. The acsent to Glenridding Dodd is a nice easy path and clear summit. | Zoe Little | 07/05/2018 |

Delightful* after initial toil. On to Heron Crag. *Pondered why only walking-guide writers and classical music critics use the word 'delightful'. | Wycombe Wanderer | 18/07/2017 |
