Christine Shepherd walked up on July 31st, 2020 [from/via/route] I walked from Red Moss using walk c239. [with] On my own [weather] Glorious sunshine with a welcome breeze. Unfortunately, I was walking into the wind but it didn't matter with the heat. - I had missed bagging this summit as I had done Clough Head on a day when the weather turned & I decided not to go any further. Nice to visit this at last Superb Views from the summit.

Walking in cloud most of the day - poor visibility. By the end of the walk, when I was heading back to the start, the cloud had lifted - peaks were even visible , it was calm in the valleys & there were even patches of blue sky.
