3rd July 2011 - The Nab and several other far eastern fells

Walk Details

Distance walked: 10.4 miles

Total ascent: 3712 ft

OS map used: OL5 - The English Lakes, North-eastern area

Time taken: 7.5 hrs

Route description: Hartsop-Gray Crag-Thornthwaite Crag-High Street-Rampsgill Head-Rest Dodd-The Nab-Satura Crag-Brock Crags-Hartsop

I parked in the car park in Hartsop and set off up the first fell of my walk, Gray Crag. From Gray Crag I made my over to Thornthwaite Crag and then to High Street. After having my lunch there I set off for Rampsgill Head and then Rest Dodd. I then made the walk across to The Nab before backtracking to the wall running under Rest Dodd and then eventually arriving on the summit of Brock Crags. I then made the descent back into Hartsop.
