Haweswater [27th March] - A sensational skyline circuit embracing the great amphitheatre of Riggindale. The route climbs the wonderfully revealing Rough Crags and Long Stile ridge onto High Street before following the ridge wall down via the Straits of Riggindale to visit the summits of Rampsgill Head and Kidsty Pike. The tour concludes in the company of Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk down the eastern slopes of Kidsty Pike via Kidsty Howes, thereby linking back to the valley path and regaining the dale-head car park. The Rough Crags ridge can be side-stepped on a path leading up by the outflow from Blea Tarn to gain the Caspel Gate saddle. From here the walk can be extended to gather up High Raise in the company of the Roman road. The walk's embrace can also easily be widened to include Mardale Ill Bell via Small Water and the Nan Bield Pass, yet the simplicity of the core tour will always win the greater favour and linger as a richly rewarding memory. If you wish to join Steve Walker & Tony Austin on this event please contact the Secretary.

In remembrance of Sylvia Hearns
