Northern Exile Apr 2022 2:28pm, 25 Apr 2022 8,726 posts	0 Northern Exile Dave, you didn't read the fecking rules did you?
Northern Exile Apr 2022 2:32pm, 25 Apr 2022 8,727 posts	0 Northern Exile OK then. I'm don't think the summit of Fleetwith Pike is visible, but it's in the picture for sure: Green Gable Fleetwith Pike Haystacks Kirk Fell Surely that can't be it??
Snoot Apr 2022 2:33pm, 25 Apr 2022 4,785 posts	0 Snoot Great shots. It was a bit breezy up the fells at the weekend wasn’t it!
Northern Exile Apr 2022 2:35pm, 25 Apr 2022 8,728 posts	0 Northern Exile It was!! Went up to Catbells on Friday night for a pre-race recce and nearly got blown off, it always seems to be really windy up there.

Mushroom Apr 2022 2:54pm, 25 Apr 2022 2,284 posts	0 Mushroom Presumably, on the very left of the photo, is the down slope of Great Gable?
Mushroom Apr 2022 2:55pm, 25 Apr 2022 2,285 posts	0 Mushroom ..not that you can see the top - but you didn't ask for that
runnyeyes Apr 2022 3:01pm, 25 Apr 2022 2,104 posts	0 runnyeyes So if Great Gable gets the thumbs up.. We’re looking at Green Gable Fleetwith Pike Haystacks Kirk Fell Great Gable ( if you squint) And Im adding Mellbreak. My first never to be forgotten scary ascent
Northern Exile Apr 2022 3:14pm, 25 Apr 2022 8,729 posts	0 Northern Exile Mmmm. You know, I don't think that any of Great Gable is visible. The downslope that Mushroom mentions is Kirk Fell I think, you can see the little nobble of Boat How quite clearly. Now that RE has added Mellbreak (nice one, I think both north and south summits are visible) I'll update the list: Green Gable (partial) Fleetwith Pike (partial) Haystacks Kirk Fell (partial) Mellbreak

Somewhere you can confidently ask "which is the best chip shop in Keswick?" and expect an intelligent reply.

Lots of experience and good advice available here, from which B & B or YHA to the best fell for Grandma to climb :-)
