The Nab - with Paul D and
Andy.
Today's goal was to reach the summit of the Nab, a fell I had last set
foot on almost 21 years ago. Paul and Andy needed to get it ticked off
following an aborted attempt from Martindale last summer. We started from
Hartsop village heading, initially, towards Satura Crag. We then skirted
around the western flank of Rest Dodd before dropping
down and then climbing again towards The Nab's summit. While
Paul and I plodded along
Andy found enough energy to to pay his first visits to Brock Crags and
Rest Dodd.
