The Eastern Fells occupy the region between the A591 Keswick to Ambleside road and the lake of Ullswater to the west. The Helvellyn range forms the main spine of the group. To the south across the depression of Grisedale Hause, is the Fairfield group of fells.
Went up Sheffield Pike with Ellie and her parents. I had had 2 hours sleep after being out night having the night before. They walked very slow at less than 1km/hr so I walked up to the col and had an hour long nap whilst they caught up. Had lunch. I walked to summit as they descended back to edge of woods. Nav error meant I nearly stepped off the cliff!!! I blame it on tiredness. Walked back to meet Ellie and her parents at the wall who just got there as I did and we descended to valley.
