THE STIFFMEISTER 16,183 Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Id be chuffed to f**k if we could put 30 lads on the top of scawfell on a sunny day and a pint at the bottom .... we should all stay over ideally but some lads have jobs etc I’ll be moving back up north at Easter so I’ll gladly start planning for a day in August ??? Best time , long sunshine , good weather , best views . Its not that hard of a walk , in my head you park at at the pub , walk on flats up past the church then start a long slow steady climb turning up round a reenterant to the right and a final push up to the summit . It’s a well defined path with steep bits but largely gradual . Should be a good day out lads Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I f***ing hate that path. Always associate it with misery. Never seen the sun on it . 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We have run it from the storey arms side in the past, I find it easier on my knees and joints if I start the other end With you now , Yep branching past that woodland block . The full dance is rats as it’s all uphill. Stinking. Seen it break a few fit lads . I prefer the left hand route as you get the legs warmed up and you can push on up high quite quickly . You aren’t delaying the inevitable Quote Link to post Share on other sites

On my way down some woman behind me fell if she had grabbed my shoulder she would have been fine instead she went down on her knees and ripped her knee cap off and had stones embedded under the flap it was pretty serious we called Brecon Mountain rescue and they got her off the mountain by carrying her down and it was before the dip and the rise so a hard slog for them my lad met them in the car park first thing they said was is she fat lol she ended up in surgery, can be dangerous if you lose concentration. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
