Christine Shepherd walked up on May 12th, 2008 [from/via/route] I walked from Millbeck using walk c321 Climbed again using walk c186 on 30.06.21 with Jenny. [with] On my own [weather] A lovely day
Chris Sheard climbed on June 28th, 2021 [from/via/route] Up from Lonscale [with] George [weather] Warm, slight winds a bit oppressive in calm valleys - Nice mountain top, with quite impressive views
Peter Hanney bagged on November 23rd, 2020 [from/via/route] Lonsdale Fell [with] Dianne and the Whiteheads [weather] Strong winds and then rain started on ascent towards Little Man
Kevin Foster hiked on March 30th, 2021 [from/via/route] Lonscale Fell. [with] By myself. [weather] Sunny to start then ascending into cloud. Cloud inversion on the top of Skiddaw which was cloud free. - After the steepness of Lonscale Fell the ascent of Skiddaw Little Man (via Jenkin Hill and Skiddaw Lesser Man?) was fairly easy. The mist was confusing so on reaching the pile of iron posts on Skiddaw Lesser Man (that's what I'm calling it anyway) I thought I'd reached the top of Little Man so I stopped for some lunch. It was only after I carried on to the actual top of Little Man that I realised my mistake!
