Returned to the langdale pikes, skirting round Thunacar Knott to climb Harrison Stickle, on to Pike of Stickle, and descended over Loft Crag. | AJScourfield | 31/07/2024 |

With L after a fun scramble up Stake Gill and up Langdale Coombe with its drumlins. Bits of scrambling up different steps up onto here - this iconic shapely peak is distinctive in so many views - but not today as the clag rolled in -abandoned our thoughts of a scramble up Harrison Stickle in the gloom. Is it really 32 years since I was last up here -on my BG ? | Chris Pearson | 17/05/2024 |
