Fellow go4awalkers who have already walked, climbed, summited & bagged Carl Side

Kevin Foster walked up on November 27th, 2020 [from/via/route] Long Side. [with] Henry. [weather] Cloudy> - Unfortunately after reaching the summit of Long Side the cloud dropped and visibility became zero. The day's walking plan had been to do Skiddaw's various tops after Carl Side and drop down off Bakestall but with the cloud down below Carl Side now there didn't seem much point. So after bagging Carl Side I headed down the obvious path SW and then did a 180 degree turn into Dodd wood to bag Dodd. Although disappointed not to do Skiddaw that day I still enjoyed the bonus of doing Dodd and Dodd wood even though it was a long walk back to the car. Annoyingly as I reached Dodd wood the cloud lifted again certainly higher than Skiddaw Little Man if not the summit of Skiddaw itself. Oh well there's always another day!
