Kevin Foster summited High Spy (North Top) on March 16th, 2020 [from/via/route] High Spy. [with] Henry. [weather] Sunny with broken cloud. Cold northerly wind. - About half way along the easy grassy ridge of Maiden Moor a rocky knoll stands with a small cairn to the right of the main path. This marks the North top of High Spy where the ground drops away steeply northwards. The wind, which was still bitterly cold & had been howling all day was almost strong enough to blow me off my feet so I didn't linger long up here!
