Description

My first ascent of Sharp Edge, with three friends. Weather was clear, sunny and warm, with gusts on the scramble of around 15-20mph. Route down was via Hall's Fell ridge which again was my first scramble down this route.
Having done Helvellyn in winter conditions this scramble was by comparison much easier and over far too soon, but all the same exciting and great to tick off.

Area : Northern Fells

Generally this is the area to the north of the A66 which runs from Penrith to Cockermouth and the town of Keswick.
