Fellow go4awalkers who have already walked, climbed, summited & bagged Grisedale Pike

Michael Nolan walked up on April 16th, 2021 [from/via/route] Lorton [with] Morag [weather] Brilliant bright day!

Catherine Hill climbed on September 29th, 2020 [from/via/route] From Whinlatter pass Revelin Moss car park [with] Alone [weather] Dry,sunny, not too windy - Missed path at the start, walked through forest and up the side of the hill between Grisedale Pike and Hobcarton Crag followed by Hopegill Head and Ladyside Pike. Hopegill Head very tricky going over the top - steep, sloppy rock. Had to climb down.

Claire Murray bagged on September 15th, 2020 [from/via/route] Braithwaite [with] Amy, Timmy and Tazzy [weather] Sunny - Planned on doing the circular but it was far too hot!!!

Nick Christian hiked on September 14th, 2020 [from/via/route] 1st of the day. [with] Karen Brown [weather] Good Sunny

Andy Buxton summited on November 2nd, 1988 [from/via/route] From Stair. Coledale Round: Causey Pike, Scar Crags, Sail, Eel Crag, Grasmore, Grisedale Pike [with] Solo [weather] Clear and cold all day

Claire Kirk conquered on July 11th, 2020 [from/via/route] Braithwaite [with] Phil [weather] Low cloud and drizzly to start, sun came out in the afternoon

Kevin Foster scaled on March 4th, 2020 [from/via/route] Hobcarton End. [with] Henry. [weather] Cloudy with light snow showers. - This was what turned out to be a fairly easy 500 foot ascent over grass to the summit of Grisedale Pike. I've done this top countless times and the view never ceases to thrill me. Only the second time via Hobcarton End though. I've usually done it from Braithwaite on the classic Coledale Round.

Simon Boddy walked up on September 16th, 2019 [from/via/route] Crummock [with] HF Holidays [weather] Sunny and clear

Richard Marchant climbed on October 3rd, 1993 [from/via/route] We parked at the car park just before the visitors centre up in Whinlatter Pass. The walk was basically Coledale Round starting with a walk through the Hospital Plantation on to the ridge of Sleet How and the ascent of Grisedale Pike then on to Hopegill Head-Sand Hill down to Coledale Hause followed then by the ascent of Crag Hill (Eel Crag) to Sail and then descended to Outerside missing out on Causey Pike due to Marlene shattered as it had been a long day for her, so then to Stile End and down into Braithwaite and back up the road to the car. That trek up the road seem to go on for ever and was a bad move. [with] Marlene & Alan Harker [weather] A fine day with no wind and wall to wall sunshine - Carried out the Coledale Round with Marlene and Alan Harker and the memorable thing we still laugh about today was the the pubs didn't open all day then and when we got into Braithwaite everything was closed and Marlene was so looking forward to a half of Shandy.

Dave Eyes bagged on June 17th, 2019 [from/via/route] Parked at Lanthwaite farm layby on the road to Buttermere. Crossed the road and headed up Whiteside. Onwards from Whiteside to Hopegill Head and then further on to the top of Grisedale Pike. The return journey took us via the top of Grasmoor and we descended via Lad How to the road and walked back to the car. [with] Christine Eyes [weather] good visibility but very windy once up high.
