	Lake District - Scafell Pike, 1st May 1999

		The second boulder field is reached on the flanks of Broad Crag at 2950ft.
		Crinkle Crags, with the vertical gash of Rest Gill, is on the left; some of the Coniston fells, notably Wetherlam, are on the right.

	Scramble Route - Ill Crag And Broad Stand - OUTDOORSmagic Scrambling (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The South East Face of Ill Crag is one of the longest scrambles in the Lake District.
		Ill Crags and Broad Stand hold special places in the history of mountaineering, with Ill Crags a favourite of Eric Shipton and Broad Stand being arguably the place where scrambling was born.
		Note Broad Stand is a notorious accident fl spot, the crux is polished and slippery and can be very tricky in the wet or in an opium-induced trance.

	Scafell Pike and the Pikes of Scafell
		Scafell Pike 3210'(4:1 FRCC 1), Broad Crag 3061' (FRCC 6),
		As we traced the path up from the col towards Broad Crag the mist seemed to disappear totally, this was slightly annoying as we had just left Scafell Pike, but cheered us up somewhat as we could now see down into the head of Eskdale and down over the corridor route to Lingmell.
		As we left Ill Crag and rejoined the main path I was surprised to see the sight of Esk Pike, Bowfell and Crinkle Crags all in a line, they seemed to be one long ridge leading away from Esk Hause.

	Eskdale from Broad Crag Col - Photo (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		This is Upper Eskdale viewed from Broad Crag col, between Broad Crag and Scafell Pike, not from the Eskdale cairn, and not to be confused with Broad Stand, which is on Scafell.
		On the horizon from the right is: Dow Crag, Coniston Old Man and Brim Fell (together), Swirl How and Great Carrs (together), Black Sails and part of Wetherlam being obscured by Crinkle Crags, the summit of Pike o'Blisco in the background, and Bowfell on the left.
		Stretched across the middle of the picture is the south ridge of Esk Pike.

	Coleridge in Eskdale, 1802 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Having seen Cat Crag on the left, Coleridge was further tantalised with the appearance on his right, in the swirling mist, of a line of half-a-dozen triangular crags.
		Coleridge states that just beyond this row is Brock Crag- which happens indeed to be the modern name of the great crag overlooking the Esk, just to the south of the row.
		Though Buck Crag does not appear on the Ordnance Survey- and hence not on any other modern maps- the location of the wonderful stone (which Coleridge christened the Four-foot Stone, though Hutchinson had claimed only three) has not been lost.

		Of more importance are the buttresses of Scafell Crags ahead which begin to loom over the valley.
		slightly steeper climb brings you into the head of the valley under the crags where there is a choice of scree slopes to climb.
		The bald summits of Broad Crag and Great End are closer to hand - a path is visible winding over Broad Crag heading for Esk Hause and an easy descent to Styhead Pass.

	Walks from Eskdale
		Follow this valley until the foot of a daunting crag appears directly ahead, just before reaching the crag a steep gill cuts of to the left, this is the last such gill before the crag.
		A decision has to be made on Scafell, Broad Strand is not recommended without a rope and knowledge of how to use it correctly (hire a guide), still challenging and thought provoking is Lord's Rake to the west.
		Many of the crags in the area have excellent routes which can be varied to suit the weather and ability.

		The path crosses the shoulder of the two other pikes of Scafell, Ill Crag and Broad Crag, both are difficult, with short descents inbetween, Broad Crag particularly is very rough.
		Scafell Pike is owned by the National Trust, to whom it was donated in 1920 by Lord Leconfield in memory of the men of the Lake District who fell in the Great War.
		Half a mile from the summit, in a broad and flat shelf, lies the highest tarn in Lakeland, Broad Crag Tarn, at 2,746 feet above sea level.

		Ill Crag, Broad Crag: It is often thought there are only four peaks in England over 3000 feet (Scafell Pike, Scafell, Helvellyn and Skiddaw).
		Ill Crag and Broad Crag are numbers five and six.
		The Grey Mare and Foal crag appears to be about one metre higher than the 561m pillar, while the 560m pillar is easily overtopped by Ward's Stone itself, which is two to three metres above the plateau.

	Scafell Pike 3,210' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The original intention was to continue from Scafell Pike to Scafell, then traverse back under Pikes Crag to reach Lingmell, but a navigational error leaving the Pike, poor weather and impending sunset meant that we decided to skip Scafell.
		We descended to the main path again and in deteriorating weather we followed it towards Scafell Pike, with detours first of 500 yards to the left to visit the summit of Ill Crag, then a difficult 150 yards over boulders to the right of the path to visit Broad Crag.
		We aimed for the northern edge of Goat Crags, and then picked the path up as it heads west down the gentle slopes beneath the crag.

	Diary of a very momentous 40th birthday walk up Scafell Pike
		We made the grassy climb up to the ascent of Broad Crag getting a good glimpse of Ill Crag to the right of us.
		Once on Broad Crag we quickly found out why it is so named, the majority of it is what can only be described as a huge boulder field, very difficult to pick your way over as no obvious path can be found.
		We were inspired to return as much as we can this year to climb what we could see.

		The classic view north from the rim of Great End's crags, with the delightful Sprinkling Tarn bottom right, with the plateau of Seathwaite Fell pointing north to Borrowdale and Derwent Water, with the Skiddaw massif behind.
		Looking south along the ridge, with Ill Crag on the left, and Broad Crag and Scafell Pike on the right.
		A wonderful view, sinfully missed by the crowds with their sights only on the highest place to be, ignoring the best place to be.

		One left up the col between Broad Crag and Scafell Pike, the other skirts around Scafell Pike to Lingmell Col. We took the path to Lingmell Col. We became more exposed to the chilly westerly wind on reaching Lingmell Coll.
		We climb up the rocks keeping to the right of Broad Crag and crossed the plateau of Ill Crag.

		I dropped down to Little Narrow Cove, up to the rocky area to the right of Broad Crag, then to the top of Broad Crag.

		We were back at the Llanberis tram station in an hour and spent the rest of the day dodging rain showers as we explored the old mountain town and climbing center.

		Sty Head can of course be gained from Wasdale but if you reach it from Borrowdale it will allow you a return over the main ridge taking in Broad Crag, Ill Crag and Great End after which you can descend via Esk Hause and the dramatic course of the Grains Gill path.
		Take the R branch and descend onto the Corridor Route which is followed as it climbs steadily SSW to Lingmell Col. Turn L and follow the rough path over scree and boulders SE to Scafell Pike.
		From the summit of Scafell Pike head NE along the main ridge past Broad Crag and Ill Crag to the col at the head of Calf Cove.

		By the time we had reached Crinkle Crags, which Wainwright judged "Lakeland's best ridge mile" and which Anthony had been burbling away about all morning, my back was drenched with sweat, my calves were frozen in shock and my knees shattered.
		Crinkle Crags might have merited Wainwright's burst of enthusiasm, but it is difficult for me to comment: I barely saw them.
		It was also one of the most dramatic - a saddle of flat land between Great End and Broad Crag.

	Bowfell & Allen Crags
		I'd previously been on the Brecon Beacons in bad rain\mist and pulled out of my first attempt at Scafell Pike on reaching Broad Crag because I did not think I was properly equipped for the amount of snow on the ground (I don't own crampons or an ice axe).
		We all felt on a real high as we went over Allen crags and the switchback to Glaramara and lots of photos were taken.
		Despite the general feeling of bonhomie, progress was slower than we expected and we were still 15-20 minutes short of the top of Glaramara at the critical time.

		The approach from Langdale or Borrowdale via Esk Hause involves the traverse of the bouldery and bumpy shoulders of Broad Crag and Ill Crag two of the lesser pikes.
		The dramatic col between the two mountains is known as Mickledore and it can be reached most easily from Wasdale although this is not the most popular approach, this starting point being the most remote from good roads and population centres.
		Pike o' Blisco is often incorporated into a long and rewarding circuit around the head of Langdale taking in Crinkle Crags, Bowfell and perhaps Rossett Pike and the Langdale Pikes as well.
