Caroline Winter walked up Comb Fell on July 25th, 2021 [from/via/route] Langleeford, Hedgehope Hill, Comb Fell, Cairn hill, The Cheviot [with] Becky & Andy [weather] Fog 50 M visibity, drizzle, warm & light breeze - Forecast inaccurate today, expecting good views. Dry, hot spell of weather last week meant easier walking on notorious boggy sections. Found fence post & broken stick in ground to mark peak

Kevin Foster bagged Comb Fell on October 23rd, 2018 [from/via/route] Langleeford. [with] Henry. [weather] Sunny but very very windy. - The strength of the wind & then walking into it for most of the ascent of The Cheviot was tough so I didn't hang around for very long at the trig point. Especially as the clouds had just dropped covering the summit in freezing white mist. After Cairn hill & an easy descent to the col l began the climb to Comb Fell negotiating some deep groughs on the way. The Top of Comb Fell is just flat & very boggy. A wooden post at the eastern end marks the 'top '. Hedgehope Hill was by far the best summit of the day. The views in all directions were amazing but the gusting wind made it difficult to stand let alone take photos.

Anthony Scott hiked Comb Fell on July 1st, 2017 [from/via/route] Longleeford [with] Jessie [weather] Grey clouds quickly clearing. Sunny spells & white cloud. 16 degrees & fair winds. - Hedgehop Hill too. Chevy chase day, busy!
