    Honister to Keswick is, as you recall, pretty easy, & is mainly simple to navigate too. There are climbs, but they are good underfoot & not too long. The descent of Robinson requires some route knowledge. The biggest problem I had with this section on my BG was descending the rockstep off Robinson: my knees wouldn't bend any more!

    Hoping for good news from those who've been out on the hill this weekend...
    The step is avoidable via a descent on grass to the right.

    Where is Stolly!?

    What time did Stolly and Gav leave Threlkeld and any confirmation they got off Blecanthra? Weather aside, I'd say that things are fairly safe from there.

    This is a bit like online Mountain Rescue! Gav's T&S club mates are waiting also...Hoping they're all plastered in the Tipi Tent!

    Is that the Tipi site in Wasdale? Just looked online and it looks great.
