The Calf from Sedbergh/Rise Hill (Aye Gill Pike)

[Broggy1]

A two part walk.

Firstly the standard route from Sedbergh up to a winter kissed and misty The Calf. A good walk even in bad weather with one particularly nasty storm on the plateau.

Winder summit - a short, steep pull from Sedbergh

Arrant How - you divert off the main path for this

The main track is fool proof even on a bad day like today

Snow on Calders

I took the diversion to Bram Rigg Top - where the Cairn has took a bit of a battering since last time I was here

The Calf

out of the mist now and looking to Rise Hill - promising a brighter afternoon perhaps?

And then the main objective of the day - the Marilyn Rise Hill (Aye Gill Pike) across the valley. Reedy and wet in it's lower stages but an easy enough task of following a faint path and the wall (stiles exactly were you would want them to be) to the uneventful summit and Trig Point.

Back to the Howgills from the start of the walk

There is a track of sorts you can follow for this one

Summit in view - just follow the wall

It misted over again upon my arrival

But the sun was trying...

Although so was the rain as another shower heads my way on the descent
