Found myself in Mike T territory today for a recce of the 5 Passes route. Up over Loughrigg from Grasmere, then over Wansfell and down to Troutbeck. Left the route there and headed up the Trout Beck valley. Never been up there before and it was lovely, absolutely deserted, but for some sheep and a solitary deer. Rejoined the route at Threshthwaite Mouth, over to Kirkstone, up Red Screes, down Scandale and the Coffin Route back Grasmere.
