Kevin Foster summited on July 22nd, 2017 [from/via/route] Dawson Close Littondale [with] By myself [weather] Rain to start, low cloud but then tops clearing and hot and sunny. - Great walk up Dawson Close with stunning views of upper Littondale below me. Just as this pleasant grass trod levelled out and started to get easy I had to leave it to follow the wall up the fell side. There wasn't much of a path to follow and a dry stone wall blocking my way that wasn't mentioned in the book made this a tough climb. The prominent summit trig point on a bed of peat was some distance from the wall traversing the summit. I had to do an 'out and back' to bag it.
Chris Faulkner conquered on April 30th, 2017 [from/via/route] Dale Head [with] Michelle chandler [weather] Dry / blowy

Wall is a good hand rail.
Ray O'hara climbed on August 23rd, 2012 [from/via/route] NY112 & NY135. I walked NY112 over Penyghent & Plover Hill as far as the cattle grid at SD87221 74498 then walked backwards round NY135 over Darnbrook Fell & Fountains Fell. The NY135 route was still easy to follow when walked in reverse. [weather] Overcast, some sunny spells - Other than being attacked by three large dogs whilst passing on the public footpath through Nether Hesleden Farm, my progress to the summit was uneventful, even following the route in reverse. The summit was a bit boggy, but I've seen worse.
