Route Map >>

The last time I attempted Little Man the wind was so strong it was impossible to stand. Better conditions today but unfortunately the previous day had inflamed my toe so I had to cut short my planned route which was to include Carl Side, Ullock Pike and Long Side. Anyway a good end to my trip, we will return shortly to finish the Northern Fells.
