Went round in circles near the end cos it wasn't obvious where the path had gone! This walk is doable but challenging and not for the faint hearted!

Stella Nuttall summited Grisedale Pike on July 4th, 2018 [from/via/route] From Whinlatter Forest - 2nd attempt from Whinlatter as last time we couldn't find our way out of the forest! Found our way out today, walked up to Grisedale Pike via Hobcarton End and continued to Hopegill Head. Descended via Ladystile but had great difficulty finding our way back into Whinlatter Forest. Finally we did but I (Stella) was seperated from Ann, Sally and Kath for the last hour. A lot of trees have been chopped down on the edge of the forest which were covering the paths. [with] Stella, Ann, Sally and Kath [weather] Beautiful hot sunny day with 360 degree clear views. - Christine unable to join us a she had a swollen knee. The Chalet at Portinscale for breakfast.
