| Walk: | Fell Foot, Parlick Pike, Nick's Chair, Fair Snape Fell, Higher Fair Snape, | ||
| Start Point: | Lay-by off Startifants Lane | Grid Reference: | SD 601 442 |
| Distance: | 5.5 miles | Ascent: | 1,400 feet |
| Time: | 2.25 hours | ||
| Weather: | Misty start clearing during the walk | ||
| Comments: | After doing lots of field walking recently, a quick trip up Parlick Pike and on to Fair Snape Fell made a welcome change. It's a shame that there was a mist obtructing the views in the early part of the walk but this cleared later on. | ||
Heading up to Parlick Pike . . .
no views today . . .
but crossing Nick's Chair Bleasdale comes into view . . .
as the mist drifts up the hillside
Paddy's Pole and the upgraded shelter . . .
on Fair Snape Fell
After descending, Parlick Pike is clear . . .
but the mist rises on the flanks of Fair Snape Fell
Walking the plank . . .
is the only way to cross the beck
