Nathan's DLOG entry below, I am tagged.
Me and a ML started at Cockley beck junction and headed north up the valley and headed between scar lathing and long crag to descend down to great moss. crossing the boggy land to head up the stream to the north of cam spout crag, were we ascended upto the saddle between scafell and scafell pike passing the MRT box. we then summited scafell pike before heading north west to lingmell when cloud rolled in and reduced vis. then heading back to lingmell col before heading east to the fords were we refilled water, and headed up the gully to the sadlle, and headed north east to broad crag and eventually over to ill crag and great end, from great ended we followed the footpath to esk hause then ascended upto esk pike, before heading to the summit of bowfell, we had planned to refill water at three tarns but unfortunately there was no flowing water, even after heavy rain the night before. we ascended upto crinkle crags, and down the south side, where we had planned to take the bridle way down. however in reality this didnt exist. we descended on wet grass aiming to the west side of gaitscale gill, and staying below the boulder field off ulpha fell crag. we then headed back to the B road crossing the stream, before jogging back west to our start loaction.

Area :
Southern Fells (Scafell Pike)
The Southern Fells Include Scafell Pike, the highest peak in England, occupy a broad area to the south of Great Langdale, Borrowdale and Wasdale. High and rocky towards the centre of the Lake District, the Southern Fells progressively take on a moorland character toward the south west. In the south east are the well known Furness Fells, their heavily quarried flanks rising above Coniston Water.
