Kevin Foster summited on June 11th, 2021 [from/via/route] Bowness Knott car park. [with] By myself. [weather] Some clouds. - The broad ridge between Great Borne & Starling Dodd was easily followed by keeping to the right of the fence & cutting across the corner on a well defined path. The top is a small rounded grassy cone with excellent views across the valley towards Steeple & Pillar. After a steep rocky descent down Dodsgill Beck you reach the tranquility of Ennerdale Forest. The last couple of miles beside the River Liza & along Ennerdale Water are delightful. A nice walk.
