First scramble this, wasn't sure about jack's rake when I looked up at it!! In fact I nearly told him where to go, never the less we did it and I must say it's very addictive ! I can see this becoming a serious hobbie !!

Dad, now 54, has been looking up at this since he was about 10 years old. A hill walker, not a climber, all he needed was a push in the right direction to finally attempt it. Found it tricky and scary but was VERY pleased to reach the top 40 or so years after first deciding to do it.

Good 1st scramble with a bit of boulder hopping up the ghyll leading to Stickle Tarn. Ben was adament he could take a stick all the way to the top but this idea was quickly forgotten once both hands were required to climb! There was also time to visit the top of Harrison Stickle and for two fry ups on Pavey Arc using a Trangia.

Really good fun. Was worried that Katherine wouldnt like it because shes not that experienced at hill walking but she loved it too. Much better than walking all the way round to the back of Pavey Ark.

Suburb days scramble, next time lighter back pack and new boots. There are exposed sections, but they seemed to be less tricky than the rest. Part a route spent scrambling up the stream to stickle tarn, finishing by taking in part of the Langdale Pikes
