Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Even though Causey Pike is one of my least favourite fells that really is awful

Just had official email confirmation from NT that all their campsites are shut until at least 30 June and cancelling our booking for the Windermere Marathon weekend which we had left live "just in case".

It’s one of the finest views in the Lakes.

the view is fine - it was the approach to it that clouded my judgement. we tackled it head-on from Rowling End - not an easy task when you've got a boisterous dog on a lead

I know I'm not one of the regular posters here, but hope to be more in the future as I sort my retirement plans. :-)

Anyway, I loved my trip up Causey Pike last August when the show of heather in the valley between CP and Outerside / Barrow was spectacular. The descent back down over Rowling End really sh*t me up though, particularly with a 9 year old boy in tow so I know where you are coming from R4R!!
