| Today was also new shoe day! Having mainly used Inov8's for quite a few years I have decided to try VJ Sport's...these are the EXTM....I shall post a review once I've used them a bit. Most of the reviews I could find were by runners I would describe as "pro"! |
 |
| It was a nice quiet walk up Stickle Gill I only saw 2 other people. The sun was catching Pavey Ark as I reached the head of the gill...I had other hills to climb first before I summited Pavey Ark. |
 |
| I walked round the South side of Stickle Tarn and up on to the ridge. Sergeant Crag soon seemed quite close. |
 |
| First top of the day, Sergeant Crag. It was blowing a hoolie although you can't tell on the photo. |
 |
| After a wild walk/jog across the damp plateau i arrived at High Raise...it was actually throwing a light hail shower at this point. |
 |
| A great smooth and easy run down to the col below Thurnacar Knott and as I looked back the shower had passed and the sun was trying to make an appearance. |
 |
| Thurnacar Knott with Harrison Stickle in the distance. |
 |
| Again an easy run down from Thurnacar Knott this time followed by a short scramble brought me to the top of Pavey Ark. Harrison Stickle my next top is prominent in this view. |
 |
| It's a bouldery scramble across the slope and I was able to look back at Pavey Ark from Harrison Stickle. |
 |
| Another easy run down from Harrison Stickle then the steep pull to the summit of Pike O'Stickle. Just Loft Crag to go...seen here on the right of the photo. |
 |
| Looking back to Harrison Stickle and the head of Dungeon Gill. The threat of shower had disappeared, all that remained was the run down to the valley floor... 7 more 2000'ers ticked, things are going well...so far! The Strava track and stats of the trip can be found here |
