Sorry about sticking this in the Bg section but thought it would pick up a better reply

Just to the west there is a path marked up via the Quarry from Hill top farm.

Whats the path like and does it actually exist. I'm guiding a group along the ridge next week setting off from Keswick. Don't want to take the BG route as this sees enough traffic and don't want to stick in the extra mileage on the coach road to take the trod from the east if I can help it.

Normally I would pop up and check any bit of the route that wasn't known to me but DofEing every day until I meet the group.

Thanks for any help.
