Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Yep, Kendal looks as good a place as any if we ever make the move

Two more Wainrights for me please @Northern Exile short wander up to Arthur's and Bonscale Pikes last weekend

had planned Loadpot and Wether Hills too, but Husband decided he'd had enough bog slopping. Think the somewhat steep alternative descent into Howtown was punishment enough for that ;)

Amazing views from there @Rosehip, one of those tops where the scene is better than the fell itself. If that makes any sense at all?!

Neighbouring Hallin Fell. Tiny but beautiful I’d say.

Having a few days of targeting Wainwright's thus week, which is a first - previous ones have just happened.

A lovely round from Glenridding on Monday, taking in Hart Side and Hellvellyn plus everything in between (revisits on the main NS ridge). Yesterday's wobbly weather pushed us to the Whinkatter quintet, and today's 'oribble rain meant for just Castle Crag.

@Northern Exile , could you tally me up to 78, please? Thanks.

Bus to Buttermere tomorrow morning, and then heading eastwards over the final BG fells if all goes well.

Bumped into a couple of runners in Keswick just before 5pm this evening, as they set off on a Bob Graham round. They're going pretty well right now - best of luck to them: live.kongtracking.com

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 :-)
