	Keswick - Friars Crag (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Friars Crag is a promontory jutting into Derwentwater on a stretch of shore about half a mile from the boat landing stages.
		Friars Crag achieved its name because it was believed to be the embarkment point for monks making a pilgrimage to St Herbert's Island, located south west of the crag.
		Also at Friars Crag is a memorial, unveiled in 1900, to John Ruskin, who had many associations with Keswick.

	Loft Crag - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Loft Crag has an altitude of 2,238 ft (682 metres) it lies between Harrison Stickle and Pike o’ Stickle and is usually climbed in conjunction with these two peaks.
		Loft Crag is a fine viewpoint which gives an attractive vista of the fells around Great Langdale, because the fell juts further out into the valley than the other two Langdale Pikes it gives a more impressive and full view of the valley.
		The fell has a small sharp summit below which rises Gimmer Crag, which is one of the top rock climbing venues in the Lake District, the crag is made of Rhyolite rock and was pioneered in the early 1880s by the father of British rock climbing Walter Parry Haskett Smith.

		That title comes from the fact that the shape of the rocks on the summit resembles, from one angle and at a distance, that of a lion being protective towards a lamb.
		Helm Crag is clearly in view as you pull your boots and gaiters on - both are definitely needed on a winter’s day.
		A final climb and the rocky summit of Calf Crag is reached giving a fine view across Easedale to Deer Bields Crags opposite.

	Rock Climbing in the Isle of Man - Calf Sound Area (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Between Spanish Head and the Calf Sound are a number of crags, including some of the biggest on the Island.
		Regrettably much of the rock is amongst the worst on the Island and so the crags remain largely untouched.
		Just before the path starts to rise steeply up the hillside it is possible to scramble carefully down to the large boulders at the foot of the very big overgrown crag, a total distance of some half mile from the car park.

	COAST TO COAST
		At this point the path used to degenerate into a rock scramble over loose boulders but nowadays with more hikers using the path their boots have worn a rough trod through the debris; but care still needs to be taken as it is still easy to twist or break an ankle.
		From the head of the lake a green path is taken alongside a wall which is crossed via a gap to walk along its north side to reach a foot-bridge.
		After Calf Crag the path continues round the edge of the escarpment to Gibson Knott.

	Walla Crag - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Walla Crag is a fell in the English Lake District, near Keswick.
		The crag is the terminal cliff on a short ridge running north west from Bleaberry Fell, dropping about 400 ft from the plateau above.
		Fellwalkers of an older generation found the height of Walla Crag an easily memorable 1,234 ft, much as Scafell Pike was once a simple 3,210 ft. More recent work by the Ordnance Survey has now elevated Walla Crag to 1,243 ft.

	The Bob Graham 42
		It is to his credit that he struggled on to complete the pacing of two of the most strenuous sections in the scheduled time.
		Towards the end of this section, Jim and myself, paced by Andy Collinson, broke away and covered the miles to Calf Crag and Steel Fell, which involves much downhill running, at a steady gallop.
		This section was completely out of character with the rest of the Lakes: deep heather and long grass reminded one of the calf tearing Irish moors.

		When I originally planned this walk I thought that we would be able to do Helm Crag, Gibson Kott, Calf Crag and then nip over to Steel Fell, return to Calf Crag and then do Tarn Crag and return to Grasmere.

		Photos of two problems at the far right-hand end of Scout Crag from Matt Triolett.
		Matt and friends climbed a number of problems here last year; the area looks worth a visit.
		First, John Gordon climbed Sylvester The Stone, V7/8, near Highly Scary Groove at the right end of the main crag.

		The final approach to Calf Crag is up a grassy slope.
		Here, one is looking over the edge of Calf Crag, over the valley of Far Easedale, into Grasmere, and beyond.
		One can barely make out Lake Grasmere in front of Loughrig, and the touch of water toward the center is Lake Windermere, the longest lake in England and a popular place for boating.

		Eventually the penny dropped and I realised that I was much closer to Calf Crag than Tarn Crag.
		The best plan seemed to be to leave the latter peak for another day and to head for home via the Helm Crag ridge bagging Calf Crag and Gibson Knott along the way.
		I left the car at the car park at the northern end of Thirlmere and followed the path through the trees towards Castle Crag, and then along a reasonable track to the summit of Raven Crag.

		A Kestrel was also hunting along the ridge, and as they had lunch on Calf Crag it hovered and dived just 50m away.

		The path descends steeply into Uldale, alongside Raven Crag, Flat Fell and the (artificial) Kinniside Stone Circle to Ennerdale Bridge.
		The alternative route follows the ridge on the north side of Easedale via Calf Crag and passing the strangely shaped rocks known as the Lion, the Lamb and the Howitzer.
		The two alternatives are fair weather alternatives, walkers with backpacks are advised to stick to the main route.

	Revised Edition of Wainwright's Pictorial Guide — Book 3 — The Central Fells
		Gone is the two-colour dust jacket with AW’s drawing of the rocks on Helm Crag; instead, there is a stunning photograph of the Langdale Pikes, taken by Derry Brabbs, AW’s honorary photographer.
		On Calf Crag, for example, the Cumberland and Westmorland boundary running across the summit now has to be referred to in the past tense – post the 1983 boundary changes – and the Stythwaite Steps have been amended from ‘old stepping stones’ to ‘footbridge’.
		Seven summits have had their heights changed following GPS surveying by Chris – Helm Crag for example is now over 1,300’, but I am puzzled with Eagle Crag which still retains a height of 1,650’ approx.

	Summer Lesbian Break (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The Intermediate group were going to walk part of the Helm Crag ridge with Sarah then take the path down into Greenburn Bottom.
		The 'up' seemed to take no time despite its steepness, and soon we were on the top near the 'Lion' crag having a first break.
		The High group meanwhile had a choice from Calf Crag to either turn left to Grasmere Common, or to turn right and cross the bog to Steel Fell.

	Five dry days in Buttermere
		On arriving at the head of the valley, we left the path to wend its way towards Borrowdale, and turned right onto the fascinating ridge which winds, via Calf Crag and Gibson Knott, to Helm Crag, with its unusual summit rocks.
		After a quick inspection of Hobcarton Crags, we followed the high level route southwards via Coledale Hause towards Whiteless Pike and back to Buttermere.
		Thus we skirted the crags and traversed the scree runs of Great Hell Gate and Little Hell Gate to return to the aforementioned Moses' Trod, which provides an excellent high level route back to the top of the incline.

	The Lake District Walker - A walking guide to the English Lake District Fells
		A good walk with the Workington Ramblers Club from Dunmail Raise, climbing Steel Fell and Calf Crag to Sergeant Man, descending the long ridge over Blea Rigg and Silver How to Loughrigg before descending to Loughrigg Terrace and down to Grasmere.
		A group day in Patterdale, the plan had been to camp out overnight tonight, but with gales forecast two separate days walking was planned, the first day we climbed over Arnison Crag and Birks to St Sundays Crag before descending from Deepdale Hause to Deepdale.
		A wet morning, we had planned to meet at Hopebeck and walk the Whiteside and Hopegill Head route but plans changed when we met up, instead we all relocated to Loweswater where we opted for a shorter walk over Fellbarrow and Low Fell.

		Trying to ignore my sore stomach I carried on towards Calf Crag (Peak 17) as the clouds closed in.
		I found the trail to Sergeant Man (Peak 18, 2392ft) easy to follow in the mist as it has lots of landmarks, but the next section is pretty featureless.
		Esk Pike, Great End, Ill Crag and Broad Crag (Peaks 25 through 28) passed quickly and other than a slight pain in my right Illotibial (IT) band (above knee) I was making good progress, generally running the flats and descents; and fast-walking the climbs.

	Best Walks - Walking Lake District
		The Lake District's rich mix of rocks, gills and crags offers the scrambler a complex variety of routes, often well removed from the beaten track.
		The result is a walk which has been thoroughly tried and tested, which should quickly establish itself as one of the most popular long-distance walks in the country.
		Rambler's Guide - The Lake District, John Gillham and Roger Turnbull - Among the most spectacular landscapes in Britain, the Lake District offers a unique combination of crag and cafe, of ice-climb and ice-cream shop, or of the slippery gill and the hollyhocks of the cottage garden.
