Corney Fell Road > Great Paddy Crag > Kinmount Buck Barrow > Buck Barrow > Burn Moor > Whitfell > Corney Fell Road > Stoneside Hill > Corney Fell Road. Just me and H. Started off in thick clag and this continued for the entire walk accompanied by a strong breeze bringing a fine mizzle. Very wet underfoot with the decision to not wear gaiters being a poor one. Also forgot my sandwiches. Not the best day to be fair. | johnkaysleftleg | 08/07/2022 |
from Corney Road | davidsharpe23 | 14/05/2022 |
A walk up Burney on Grizebeck with DD7 was followed by an excellent lunch in the Square Cafe Broughton. DD7 took the opportunity to jump one fell ahead of the absent DS8 having been one behind at the start of the day. Stopped car at top of Corney and we both jogged Stoneside. Got to keep that competitive edge! | nukeboy1 | 25/09/2021 |
7.3 mile circular from Buckbarrow Bridge. Followed beck then footpath up onto featureless Burn Moor, then followed trails across to Whitfell. From then headed back to col and onto rocky Buck Barrow then across to Kinmont Buck Barrow following fence to top of the pass and onto Stoneside Hill. Followed surprisingly busy Corney Fell road back to car. Great views in lovely sunny conditions and only saw 1 other person on the walk on a Sunday in the Lakes. Only 495m ascent on walk. Earlier that day we bagged Caw, Stickle Pike, Tarn Hill and Great Stickle. | DanTrig | 27/06/2021 |

After laughing at Little Paddy Crag, Alan and I rounded off a very pleasant day with a short and sweet ascent up Stoneside Hill | Peak Rambler | 15/08/2017 |
WOs 35-43; Bs 26-38. Cloudless skies so did a huge day with 9 WOs and 12 Bs. Parked at summit of Fell Road then quickly up and back Stoneside Hill. Excellent walk over Great Paddy Crag, Buckbarrow, out and back to Kinmont Buckbarrow and same to Plough Fell (dull). On over Burn Moor to Whitfell - best views of whole trip - and pitched camp under Stainton Pike. Joyce set up camp while I did Stainton Pike, then horrid boggy walk out to The Knott and much better back to White Pike, Woodend Heights and Yoadcastle. Walked back to Fell Road next morning in thick mist. | BURGESS | 24/07/2017 |

From Great Paddy Crag. Serves me right for not looking at the map as back home now have just realised I omitted Plough Fell and it's a hell of a way to go back for it. | Wycombe Wanderer | 09/01/2017 |
