This board helps you to share your walking route experiences in England and Wales... or overseas.
Please note that hillwalking when there is snow lying requires an ice-axe, crampons and the knowledge, experience and skill to use them correctly. Summer routes may not be viable or appropriate in winter. See winter information on our skills and safety pages for more information.

Weather turned! VERY strong wind, rain, substantially colder. Tackled Fleetwith 'the back way' rather than up the NW ridge. Managed to tick-off Brandreth and Grey Knotts, but no views to speak off with mist. Back down to Honister Pass and along to Seatoller for bus back to Keswick. Wainwright tally going into 2020 is now 103.
