Fellow go4awalkers who have already walked, climbed, summited & bagged Rest Dodd
Chris Sheard walked up on August 10th, 2020 [from/via/route] Up from Hartsop carpark [with] Jamie [weather] Quite warm start with light winds cleared for a glorious afternoon - Steep initial ascent and worth it for socialising with folks on CtC - Much water needed
Adrian Howard climbed on September 28th, 2017 [from/via/route] Cow Bridge Car park
Andrew Johnson bagged on November 19th, 2019 [from/via/route] Hartsop [weather] Beautiful day, clear skies.
John Bryers has hiked [from/via/route] Walked from St. Peter's church up front of Bonscale Pike, Arthur's Pike, Loadpot Hill, Wether Hill, High Raise, Kidsty Pike, Rampsgill Head, Rest Dodd and The Nab dropping back into Bannerdale and road back to church. [with] With Mya my faithful 12 year old Patterdale Terrier. [weather] Weather sunny to start, slight wind on ridges with light rain at times ending with some warm sunshine.
Wayne Baxter summited on May 12th, 2019 [from/via/route] Patterdale to Shap on the coast to coast walk [with] Sue, Wendy & Trevor [weather] Sunny
Kevin Foster conquered on May 17th, 2019 [from/via/route] Place Fell via Boredale Hause and Angletarn Pikes [with] Henry. [weather] Sunny and hot to begin with becoming cloudier later on with a fresh northerly breeze. - The approach from Boredale Hause via Angletarn Pikes is quite interesting with great views along the way of Brothers Water, Kirkstone Pass and Hayeswater. Rest Dodd's remote position at the head of Martindale makes it one for the 'baggers'. The top is marked with a small cairn of stones but the flagpole mentioned in the wainwright books is sadly no longer there.
Michael Nolan scaled on January 27th, 2019 [from/via/route] Hartsop [with] Morag [weather] cold clear lovely - as usual ste off too late thank goodness for torches and gps on the way back!
Elaine Evans walked up on October 16th, 2018 [from/via/route] From Hartsop, across lower slopes of Brock Crags up to Satura Crag, across to The Nab then back to Rest Dodd, descended to Hayeswater and returned to car via path along Hayeswater Gill. [with] Sue and Christine [weather] Wet and very windy, low cloud. - Missed out on the views again today. On the plus side, the wind had dried us out before we got back to the car!
Paul Macey climbed on July 23rd, 2018 [from/via/route] Brothers Water [weather] Dry start rainy walk back after the Nab
Craig Steeland bagged on June 6th, 2018 [from/via/route] From Hartsop village car park [with] Sue [weather] Grey and still with cloud above the summits.
