Sunday 31 Mar - Fairfield Horseshoe

Note: Given the recent snowy weather, crampons and ice axe will be required if we do the Fairfield Horseshoe. I'm going to do a quick recce on Friday to determine the conditions, and may alter the route if conditions are unfavourable. Whatever we do, the start point and time will be the same. Please let me know if you are coming.

Start Time: 10:00 AM
Description: This is one of the classic Lake District walks, but one that the group hasn't done for a while, and is always worth revisiting. We'll do it in a clockwise direction, starting with the ascent of Nab Scar and Heron Pike. This is a joint walk with the Cheshire Walkers.

The Cheshire Walkers are also doing a walk on Sat 30 Mar, which Summit Good members are welcome to attend. Details at http://www.cheshirewalkers.org.uk/events/event.php?id=269 - please note that the details for this walk have changed.

Start Point: Rydal road car park, Ambleside (NY375046) - likely to be expensive. Free parking may be available at Under Loughrigg, NY 371044, but you will need to make your own way to the start
Level: Strenuous
Distance: 12 miles
Leader: Tom
