A highly enjoyable short circuit from the Kirkstone Inn: St Raven's Edge, Hart Crag and Pike How. The summit cairn on Pike How is easily seen ascending from Hart Crag, but more difficult to spot from the descent after St Raven's Edge. | Nick Down1 | 29/06/2021 |
First post lockdown walk! 10 miles in the wind pretty arduous. | atreides7887 | 05/04/2021 |

From Pike How, and on to St Raven's Edge. Seems the cairn 60m S (at NY 41278 08551) might be the spot Mr Synge selected, it offers far better views. | jonglew | 18/07/2018 |

Another new top on the list! Again, I have the habit of taking in all high points, listed or not, whilst out walking, so this one has been conquered | moorsman | 25/04/2009 |
