Richard Marchant hiked Long Side on October 11th, 1988 [from/via/route] We parked off a minor road to Orthwaite we made an ascent up to Ullock Pike via the Allerdale Ramlbe footpath then along the Longside Edge to Carl Side and still on the Allerdale Ramble up to the top of Skiddaw. A fantastic day out with my Mum, awesome views and my first ascent of Skiddaw with many more that followed. A lovely memory for me. [with] Mum & Dad [weather] A fine day with not wind wall to wall sunshine - The ascent of Skiddaw was taken during a weeks holiday in the Lakes with Mum and my Dad although I just went out walking up the mountains with my Mum as my Dad was not fit enough to join us. We stopped at a self catering cottage at Dockray. Probably the last holiday I had away from Dorset with my Mum and Dad,
