Direction: NW then N up shoulder of Great Shunner Fell; then descent NE then E to Thwaite. Farmland paths E then N. Followed Pennine Way N over Stonesdale Moor.
Description: Continuing on the Pennine Way. Around here I was finding my feet and beginning to regain some confidence. I had missed out Pen-y-ghent due to not being in shape but I went back to do it in 2020. This was a clear, long but not particularly steep walk and I approached it with the view to improve performance and increase pace, to get back in shape. Sense of fulfilment.
