	A Yorkshire Dales Walk - Penyghent from Litton
		A different approach to and ascent of Penyghent is provided by this walk that starts and finishes in the village of Litton in Littondale.
		After our extended break we moved onto the Penyghent plateau at Plover Hill and walked, often in bog as the Plover Hill area of the hill is a bugger to walk.
		We knew the way from the moor as the Dawson Close bridle road to Litton was in clear view as we had descended from Penyghent.

	Pennine Way Diary 1994 Part 7
		Penyghent Long Churn is not so picturesque but drops down to an awe-inspiring depth of what looked like about 100 ft or so.
		The view from the top of Penyghent never really impresses me; to the west is a good view of Ingleborough but its profile is far less distinctive than when viewed from the north.
		Between Penyghent and Fountains Fell is a stretch of about a mile of road walking as shown on the latest guide books, but the earlier route went along the hillside.

	Classic Caves: Penyghent Pot
		Now Penyghent Pot was established as the deepest cave in Yorkshire it became the target for a number of other clubs, all wishing to descend what was, at that time, one of the severest trips in the country.
		It is as well to check at this stage that one has a good pair of kneepads as the crawling continues unabated for 1000 feet to the head of the first pitch.
		"Penyghent knees" are a common complaint, a product of inadequately protected knees and numbingly cold water which gives one no inkling of the damage one is doing.

	NPC Journal 2(2), 1959: "Blue Journal", Penyghent Gill
		Penyghent Pot was finished and sundry digs and prospects had turned out blank.
		We did not tackle this one as bends in the passage were a trifle too acute to allow of the passage of the short lengths of scaling ladder.
		Lower down Penyghent Gill is a steep-sided tributary valley on the east side of which is a low cave opening about thirty feet or so above the stream.

		We were finally ready to depart for Penyghent Pot at noon.
		The entrance was found quite easily and Martin, Jim and Janet, who had been acting as porters by carrying some of the vast amount of ladder and rope, departed downhill in miserable drizzle to fly Jim’s kites and check the quality of the local ale.
		The exit onto Penyghent hillside found us still in darkness, but now with drizzle and mist to contend with.

	Depth through thought 15.9 (18/5/05)
		Recently Gavin asked whether anyone was going to the Dales as he had to drop expedition gear back, so the weekend of Oct 29/30 Gavin, Gareth and I headed up to BPF planning to do Penyghent on the Saturday.
		Having read about Penyghent, I was prepared for the long crawl to the first pitch, but I found the equally long (or so it felt) stoop to the second pitch tough going.
		Penyghent is a good example of the truism that it's usually easier to go down than up.

		It involves reaching the summits of Penyghent, Whernside and Ingleborough, and the downstream sumps of Penyghent Pot, King Pot and the static sump in Meregill Hole.
		Leaving rucksacks at the entrance to Penyghent Pot, Dinny, John Simon and I slogged up the front face of Penyghent and stood on the top of our third trig point of the weekend, to the amusement of a few ramblers.
		By 13:15 we'd started on Penyghent Pot, lugging our own tackle in, the sump was quickly reached and a slow exit made surfacing at 17:30, tired but elated.

		The transport was Trev Jones van, and an Austin 1100.
		However, when morning arrived, one Roy Hincks was pleading the headaches (thank heaven he didn't feel sick as well!) and decided against our better judgement not to descend.
		The sky was cloudy as we descended through the bouldery entrance, but it didn't seem to threaten rain, so no-one worried.

		Its visit seen here at Derby Locomotive Works was thought to be for scrapping, but in reality the locomotive was to recieve an engine from one of its scrapped sisters.
		Rumours were also abound about Penyghent being secured for the National Collection at York which was not to be.

	Pennine Way: Malham to Horton in Ribblesdale
		I had lunch at the summit and then proceeded steeply downhill over a ladder stile to rejoin the PW as it followed a wall down easier slopes to a road.
		The road was followed past the buildings at Rainscar and to a parking area and the track to Penyghent.
		The café is the local information centre and holds the record book for the Three Peaks walk (24 hours to conquer Whernside, Ingleborough and Penyghent all about 700 metres high) as well as a log book for the Pennine Way.

		Another eight had been seen setting off towards Penyghent from Horton in Ribblesdale, spotted by Robin Barker, operating a mobile police office, which is like a small motorhome, equipped with radio and computer links.
		It is chilly, drizzling, with mist obscuring the hills.
		It is a day for the fireside or pub snug or the Penyghent CafÃ© at Horton, which is serving all-day breakfasts and bowls of wholesome lentil soup.

	Further work in Penyghent Pot (ULSA rants)
		Floods of this severity are perhaps something of a rare event, but parties anticipating a trip into the further reaches of the cave should be fully aware of the flood hazard.
		Several minor discoveries were made during ULSA's innumerable visits to Penyghent Pot up to 1994 during the dying days of the exploration of the Living Dead Extensions.
		A rather squalid inlet passage joins the main Penyghent Pot passage at the head of the first pitch ("Twin Falls pitch"), the water from this inlet forming the second waterfall at the pitch (the other fall being the water from the entrance crawl).

	A Yorkshire Dales Walk - Penyghent and Hull Pot
		The southern profile of Penyghent stands awesome and inspirational in view with two distinct short stepp climbs becoming increasingly obvious as one draws closer.
		After Brackenbottom Scar the southern face of Penyghent loomed large and at Gavel Rigg the spectacular face was at its most imposing.
		It was blooming cold so with some vivacity we marched down from the top part of Penyghent and down towards Penyghent Side and Penyghent Needle, a small broken limestone edge that stands proud.

	Penyghent Pot Incident (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Penyghent Pot was discovered in late 1949, by the N.P.C. The cave with its notorious entrance filled for most of the part by icy water, the thirteen wet pitches and a total depth of some five hundred feet was soon to hit the headlines.
		The pot had already been the scene of a rescue in May 1951, which resulted in the death of John William's one of seven members of the B.S.A. who descended the cave on May 18th at eleven a.m.
		The tragedy of John Williams was fresh in the mind of every caver that day, determination and the sheer bulk of cavers ensured the rescue was not a repetition of the fatality of the previous three weeks.

		Please keep to the footpath." We weren't tempted to stray, one reason being that the cloud had come down on us - or we had come up to it - and visibility was low.
		Penyghent was now to our left across the pastures.
		The view out of our bedroom window at the Golden Lion in Horton-in-Ribblesdale was of Penyghent, beyond the church, so we continued our enjoyment of the scene.

		The lane passes in front and to the right of the buildings and then continues out through a gate heading now directly in line with Penyghent.
		After a further one hundred and fifty yards, go through another wooden gate and continue ahead on the track.
		After six hundred yards the footpath turns to wooden boards, as it frequently does in this area, to prevent further erosion, and to keep the path above the sometimes very boggy fells.

	Walks in Yorkshire - Walks, accommodation, entertainment and much more in the Yorkshire area
		The Yorkshire Dales, popularised by the television program "All Creatures Great And Small", are a region of charming rural villages, pastureland and meadows surrounded by high fells and moors.
		These are interspersed with stone barns, dry stone walls, caves, potholes, waterfalls and stunning limestone scenery centred around the three peaks (Ingleborough, Whernside and Penyghent), which is probably the finest in Britain.
		The North York Moors provide the largest expanse of heather upland in England on its vast open moorland.

		Although all I am going to deal with in this ‘guide' is the walk there is much more of interest in the area and a year would not be long enough to see everything fully.
		The Penyghent Cafe at Horton in Ribblesdale (tel :- 01729 860333)is geared to the needs of walkers and provides a booking out safety service for Three Peaks walkers and others.
		Although Penyghent looks the most impressive of the three peaks at 2277' it is in fact the lowest of them.

		Even though walking any of Penyghent, Whernside or Ingleborough in isolation is satisfying walks in itself, there is a one thing that many people seem to like - a challenge!
		The Café generally stocks a specially designed map, on which is shown the Three Peaks route, which is a good aid to use in conjunction with the Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 map of the area.
		A path turns left off the lane just before the farm and then left again as it starts to climb slowly over a series of stiles, until, over the last one, the path meets up with the Pennine way.

		The walk downhill was horrendous: what is usually a steep, rocky and uncomfortable descent now transformed into a limb threatening, muddy ski run, due to the rain.
		The prospect of clambering up the wet and slippery rocky ledges of Penyghent with a pack in a developing storm wasn’t appealing.
		Walking on ahead of the pair we admired the striking views from the Cam High Road, extending to the Eastern Lakeland Fells, way to the west, southwards to Penyghent and east towards Buckden Pike.
