18 09 2007 - Stybarrow Dodd, Watson's Dodd and Great Dodd with Paul D

 

We started from Stanah and followed the path's strenuous climb up to Sticks Pass. There was good weather at the start with sunny spells and plenty of blue sky but as the afternoon wore on it became more overcast. By the time we got to sticks pass it was quite cold and windy. The day was rounded off at The Badger Bar at Rydal.

The 'inexplicable cairn' as Wainwright describes it. As the path here is indistinct it's actually quite useful
