11 miles, 3,308 feet, 4 hours 2 minutes: Travellers Rest - Far Easedale - Easedale Tarn - Blea Rigg - towards Stickle Tarn, taking Wainwright's path to the right at the small walled enclosure - Sergeant Man - Tarn Crag - Far Easedale - up to Bracken Hause and down the zig-zags - Travellers Rest. Overcast, with the cloud base just obscuring some of the highest tops. A moderate breeze from the south west. No rain. Terrain dry and becoming hard in places; good grip. Lots of walkers near Easedale Tarn, very few elsewhere. No runners seen; one cuckoo heard. Car parks and town busy.
The direct route from Far Easedale up to Bracken Hause is not to be recommended - very rough and steep - they have started putting in some steps which it badly needs.
