Description

A Rockhopper MC trip based in Glenridding. Excellent conditions and with a single novice we headed up Sheffield Pike before heading up the trackless ridge from Nick Head to Greenside. After visiting Stybarrow Dodd and Raise, we descended via the ski tow area, the hard snow on the north facing slopes providing an excellent area to practice axe and crampon skills.

Area : Eastern Fells

From the Kirkstone Pass to the M6.
