Very windy on this summit. - The summit of this fell can be seen for a good deal of the walk so there is no problem locating it but the ground on the approach is very boggy & has to be negotiated carefully if you want to avoid wet feet.

Mark Davidson bagged Seat Robert on September 22nd, 2014 [with] Alone [weather] Nice & sunny for late September - Lots of tussocky grass & bog - not many paths. Fine cairn & shelter on the summit.
