Set off from Wasdale Head on a mixed weather day, went up Lingmell Gill to Lingmell Summit 2649ft. From there we ascended up to Mickledore, a rocky gap between Scafell and Scafell Pike. Here we decided to go up Lords Rake, a rock filled scree gulley that had been out of bounds for a year, because of a major rock fall that had blocked the 1st gulley and made it unstable. This had now stabilised to some extent. After Lords Rake, we scrambled up to the summit to see good views of the other peaks of the Scafell range and surrounding hills. From the summit we descended south to the summit of the lower outlying peak of Slight Side 2499ft and then turned west, past the remains of an old crashed plane to descend to Burnmoor Tarn, where we picked up a good track back to our start point at Wasdale Head.
