	Scafell Pike - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is sometimes confused with the neighbouring Sca Fell, to which it is connected by the pass of Mickledore.
		Another ascent can be made from Eskdale, the longest and most arduous way up but it has some very fine scenery.
		Scafell Pike is one of three British mountain climbed as part of the (National) Three Peaks Challenge.

		At the Southern end of Mickledore is Broad Stand, a series of short rock steps and walls which seems to offer an easy way to and from the summit of Scafell but appearances are deceptive.
		Turn right and follow Mickledore ridge for 50 yards or so until the cliffs at the end are reached.
		As Mickledore is approached the path passes the base of Broad Stand on the left with its starting crack of "fat man's agony".

		The name is specially applied to the southern point (3162 ft. in height) of a certain range or mass, but Scafell Pike, separated from Scafell by the steep narrow ridge of Mickledore, is the highest point in England (3210 ft.).
		Above Mickledore ridge Scafell rises nearly sheer, the rock scored with bold clefts; here are some of the ascents most in favor with the mountaineers.
		Some of these tax climbers to the utmost; and the mountain has been the scene of several accidents.

	Walk #435: Wasdale Head to Gosforth via Mickleden and Scafell Pike
		I was treated to some sunshine, but from Mickledore to the summit I was in periodic cloud layers, and there were negligible views from the summit.
		On the scramble up Mickledore the wind was blowing ferociously from behind me, and the wind at the summit was also very strong.
		Once past Mickledore the going was less steep, although underfoot it was far rockier.

	Coleridge in Eskdale, 1802 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		For some sections of his journey, including much of the walk through Eskdale, details survive from both the notebook he took with him and from a descriptive letter he wrote in episodes as he went along, to his beloved Sara Hutchinson (not to be confused with the Sara to whom he was actually married).
		He did not know the name of the low ridge- Mickledore- nor the impossibility of climbing down to it directly from Scafell without proper equipment.
		You will see in William Green's 1819 description of the Scafells that more practical routes between Mickledore and Scafell were established quite soon after Coleridge's experience- and it looks as if at least one was inspired directly by it, because the climbers named are Thomas Tyson and Mr Towers.

		Its height of 963 m (3162 feet) makes it the second highest hill in England after Scafell Pike, from which it is separated by the pass of Mickledore.
		Originally the name Sca Fell referred to the whole of the massif from Great End south to Slight Side; only more recently has the general term become applied solely to the part of the fell south of Mickledore.
		While now known to lack some of its neighbour's elevation, Sca Fell is still the more difficult peak to climb.

		This stream descends from Mickledore, the ridge which connects Scafell Pike with Scafell, and to the top of which a sharp climb must now be commenced.
		Twenty yards or so before the top of the ridge is attained, an opening in the rock on the left, just wide enough to squeeze through sideways, leads to the so-called Broad Stone, the short but dangerous cut from Scafell Pike to Scafell.
		The top of the Mickledore ridge is narrow but not dangerous, and from it a direct descent may be made into Wasdale.

		The hause in the centre is Mickledore, the slab of rock facing and to the left of Mickledore is Broad Stand, and the left hand summit in cloud is Scafell (964m).
		I remember the winter before, ascending Scafell via Lord's Rake, which begins with a descent from Mickledore (on your bum) to the entrance to the rake and a chimney-like scramble to the top.
		Heaving MF camera gear and tripod, plus the persistent slide of stones beneath your feet ensured that progress was slow and difficult.

		Lords Rake was not on your route Paul as it is on Sca Fell as opposed to Scafell Pike.
		You would be concentrating on the route that you were taking, especially as you would be approaching the mucky scramble to Mickledore and probably not noticed Lords Rake.
		Had you looked back over to the rocks on your right, shortly before that scramble, a gully rising steeply between the rocks may have been seen, that is Lords Rake, which almost doubles back in the reverse direction to that which you were taking.

		There is no mistaking the big boulder, it is room high and the path goes between it and a smaller boulder that clearly used to be part of the larger one.
		Follow the path upwards in the direction of Mickledore, now you are in the shadow of Scafell's crags, or at least the mist covering the crags.
		So before you look right, look at the rock face almost directly ahead, there is a cross neatly carved into the bare rock to commemorate a fall that killed four climbers a hundred years ago.

	Sca Fell and Scafell Pike (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Sca Fell is a little lower at 964m and is around a kilometer away, but the direct route from one to the other is a bit tricky.
		Getting from the col at Mickledore to the summit of Sca Fell involves climbing Broad Stand, one climbing move with a big drop behind you that puts most people off.
		The routes up from Wasdale are rather tedious, and I prefer either the Corridor Route from Sty Head or the high level route from Esk Hause.

	A SHORT HISTORY OF LAKELAND CLIMBING - Part 1
		However, with the beginning of the Gully and Chimney period all doubt as to motive was set at rest.
		Though not on so large a scale as Clogwyn, its steepness, severity, and reputed inaccessibility were quite comparable; whilst in some respects, such as the relative absence of vegetation, it might claim a slight superiority.
		The other great climb of this year was due to the inspiration of an equally brilliant young cragsman, Maurice Linnell, whose untimely loss in 1934 was a disaster to British climbing only to be compared with the death of Herford.

		The plan on the day was to follow the Esk valley up to the Great Moss, cross the river at some point, and then climb up to Mickledore, from there we would climb across the ridge up to the peak of Scafell.

	More than just a fallen boulder Cumbria
		At the top of the reconstructed path is a large boulder and you begin to see just how impressive the the crags are that you have been looking at on the way up.
		After a particularly eroded part of the path where the red undersoil shows through there is a seemingly meaningless cairn but this is where you need to slant upwards to the left.
		The path you are on will take you on the Scafell Pike side of the wide gully to Mickledore but you need to get over to the Scafell side.

		I made my way down to Mickledore with the intention of climbing Scafell by Foxes Tarn - Lord's Rake being much too hazardous under the conditions.
		I dropped down to the foot of Foxes Tarn gully but soon realised that the route was not feasible without crampons, and so I set off back up to Mickledore, keeping close to the East Buttress to get a view of Broad Stand.
		Easy going initially, but then the snow changed to ice, lubricated by water dripping from the icicles hanging from the buttress.
