Christine Shepherd scaled it on March 15th, 2009 [from/via/route] The Longsleddale Horizon from Stockdale using walk c204 [with] On my own [weather] Dry but overcast - Quite a boggy walk but cheered considerably by watching a herd of deer running across the moor in front of me. Climbed again by the same route, 16.7.20 Finally did walk c204 in sunshine on 24.5.23 Such much easier when you can see the paths & the ground is dry.
Angeline Grieveson walked up it on November 20th, 2022 [with] Dotty
Richard Fulcher climbed it on August 29th, 2022 [from/via/route] Parked at Sadgill after negotiating the 5 mile single track road down Longsleddale. The path starts just behind the parking area & we followed it up through a few smaller crags to Grey Crag. We decided to walk across to Harrop Pike & then traversed back across the lower boggy ground & up to Tarn Crag. The descent was easy (NNW) to Brownhowe Bottom & we then followed the Gatescarth Pass track back down to the car, passing some delightful waterfalls along the way. [with] Jen [weather] Overcast grey skies with a light breeze from the East. - Fairly straightforward walk, but tricky to drive to! A good one for August Bank Holiday Monday .. not many people about.
Sarah Moore bagged it on August 6th, 2022 [from/via/route] c204 [with] On my own [weather] Great day for it - cool & windy but views for miles
