Northern Exile - not particularly bagging them, but I find those books easier to read than AW's (heresy, I know). I think it's a typeface thing I'm using the 'old' series (e.g. Northern fells) rather than the most recent editions (e.g. 'Keswick') I think there are a few more fells in the new series, but I've never checked which ones they are |

Yes, that's right - it was a consequence of the widening of the national park boundaries a couple of years back. They're the tops around the "other" Borrowdale to the west of Tebay, I can't remember their names now but it's a nice circuit.

That makes sense - the new ones in the 'Far East' are Grayrigg Forest, Whinfell Beacon and Winterscleugh. Like you say in the 'other' Borrowdale between the A6 and M6

That's the ones. I parked in the layby under Jeffrey's Mount and went from there.

Jeffrey’s always looks appealing from the M6 southbound

Always looks appealing, but never enough to stop there yet!

Surely that's Steel Knotts otherwise known as Pikewassa? 🙂 Seriously though, it sounds great - I love Martindale, hope you have a terrific week.

Can anyone tell me if there are any fell races/events which go through/close by Crosthwaite?
