4th hill of 12 on a 29.3km circuit from Greendale Cottages, continuing after High Pikehow, steeply up taking a pic of my GPs recording both 675m and 6.75km at the same time. Intermittent scree, boulders and grass before reaching top near fence. Crossed over to windshelter anyway but I agree with current High top. Continued towards Little Gowder Crag. Too cold to stop... | Dazingdale | 17/03/2024 |
